Dear all

I hope you are all fine.

The wintersport week in Fiesch (www.fiesch.ch ) will take again place from 12 to 19 February 2011. We have rented a chalet so we will be able to prepare our own food and do DC together.

Fiesch is the place where Baba came in 1979 to give DMC, 30 years ago. He stayed for a week and we are staying in a place that is only 3 minutes walk from where He stayed. He said that Shiva was also in these mountains and that the first life on earth came from planet Mars to somewhere in this region. So it is a spiritually vibrated place, a tantra pita...

People can do downhill skiing, snowshoe walking and cross country skiing, as they like. In the last two years we took a guide for snow shoe walking on one of the days, it was really interesting and great fun seeing the beautiful snow-covered nature in areas that you cannot see from the ski slopes. Simply marvellous. You can see some of our snowshoe walking and skiing pictures from previous ski retreats here: http://zen.jyoshna.com/index.php?album=winter

The chalet we have booked has space for seven people in a single and three double bedrooms, on three floors so we will not be too crowded in each room. We have the chalet to ourselves. If more than seven people want to come, those who don't have a place in the chalet can stay in the youth hostel or in a local hotel. The youth hostel is only 3 minutes from the chalet. Approximate cost per night if the chalet is fully occupied will be around 30CHF (Swiss Francs) per person per night plus food, but it may be a little more if some cannot come for the whole week. Having the chalet to ourselves gives us the excellent ability to prepare sentient meals every day, have satsaunga in a beautiful place with thrilling daily activities, and do daily kiirtan and meditation together. The chalet is called Chalet Steinbock and you can see the web site of it here: http://www.chalet-vermietung.ch/steinbock/index.html

Fiesch has very good transport links to other places and is easy to get to. Geneva, Zurich, Basel and Milano airports are all about 3.5 to 4 hours by train.

If you would like to come we would like you to pay a small deposit to secure your place, as places are limited and we don't want to turn anyone away and then find someone not coming at the last minute. When you contact me, if you are interested in attending, I will provide the details about this.

All are welcome to come, also non margiis (but must be interested in collective meditation).
