Brother Sudhiira and Dada Krsnabuddhyananda are working tirelessly all year round to improve the accommodation and other facilities at Ananda Kanan and have recently made improvements in the Family Dorm and the second floor of the Dining Hall. This time, Sudhiira and the organizing committee have arranged the Ananda Kanan kitchen staff to prepare all the meals during the retreat. This is so that you can enjoy quality food, and have time to participate in the programs during the conference. The organizing committee is currently raising funds for covering the extra cost of hiring the professional cooks. Please consider giving a donation to help organize the retreat in a better way. Donations are also welcome to support our Dadas and Didis that are contributing their time and energy for making this retreat happen.
The Ananda Marga Summer Retreat is coming soon – June 30 to July 6 at Ananda Kanan Ozark Retreat Center. There have been some exciting changes to Ananda Kanan and to the retreat this year. Perhaps the biggest one is that for the first time the retreat food will be prepared by the Ananda Kanan kitchen staff, led by Naomi and Yumi (pictured dining in the patio). They have been preparing meals for guests at Ananda Kanan for the past three years. Visitors to Ananda Kanan have raved about the quality of their food and the beautiful presentation. Head Chef Naomi is planning to feature a different international cuisine each day, like Indian, Chinese, Mexican, Italian, etc. You won’t want to miss the chance to experience bliss at Ananda Kanan in a whole new way!
