This is an opportunity to meet people from all over the world, from different backgrounds and lifestyles, as well as to connect with local people and learn about their culture. It will also provide Workawayers with a chance to learn about different spiritual practices (including karma yoga) and be able to use this new knowledge as you continue along your journey.
Help
Karma yoga is a path of liberation that was described in ancient yogic tradition and is still alive today. It is a way of connecting spirituality and daily life. Any activity that we do can become a spiritual practice if our motivation comes from a pure desire to do the action rather than the outcome of the action. When doing karma yoga, we do all actions with full mindfulness to make it a meditative experience. Instead of thinking about it as a chore, we see the task as a spiritual practice that helps us to be centered, selfless and in harmony with ourselves and the world around us.
Position Details
This is a transformative opportunity that is for those who are committed to their spiritual journey and are searching for a way to go deeper through selfless service and mindful action. We are looking for karma yogis to join our team for at least a month or more. These positions require working 5 hours per day for 5 days a week while still attending some classes at the retreat program. Karma yogis are expected to come with a mindset of service, a dedication to the values of the center, and the ability to truly immerse themselves in the experience.
Qualifications
- Interest and passion for the values of the center and spiritual practice
- Strong communication skills, people lover
- Positive physical and mental health
- Ability to balance work schedule and class attendance
- Commitment to following retreat guidelines completely
- Ability to self-manage and self-motivate
- Flexibility to make 1-month commitment
