December 5-14, 2009
Please join Reb Yakov Leib HaKohain on a Meditation and Dreamwork pilgrimage to the Matchu Picchu and the sacred lands of the Inkas in the South of Peru. The dates of the trip are December 5-14, 2009.
Join Reb Yakov Leib, the recognized spiritual leader of the Donmeh Community (please see Reb Yakov Leib's bio), for 9 days of pilgrimage retreat in the Matchu Picchu region. Our trip is a pilgrimage inwards aided by daily journeys to sacred sites. Our pilgrimage will take us to some of the most sacred and most beautiful natural sites in the Inca's Sacred Valley. We will journey to the most-magnificent Machu Picchu sanctuary. We will also hike through age-old archeological ruins. We will participate in guided group meditations and Neo-Sabbatian Kabalistic teachings. We will also meet and converse with local Indigenous Shamans.
During Reb Yakov Leib HaKohain's retreat to Matchu Picchu, Peru we will:
*Visit and experience the Matchu Picchu and the Inca's Sacred Valley's powerful and sacred places
*At each sacred place, perform the Neo-Sabbatian Tikkun HaNitzotzot -- a theurgic "Raising Up of the Holy Sparks" in order to reunify them with their Source. This powerful, daily ceremony will be led by Reb Yakov Leib, preceded each time by him sounding the Shofar (Biblical Ram's Horn) and then reciting the Hebrew Kaddish, or Prayer for the Dead
*Each morning, participate in a dreamwork group with Reb Yakov Leib, working on whatever dreams were prompted by the powerful energies of the sacred places visited the day before.
*Every afternoon study the Zohar, Gnostic Gospels, Bhagavad-Gita, etc. with Reb Yakov Leib in the context of the powerful energies of Matchu Picchu and the Sacred Valley
*At the end of each day, meet with Reb Yakov Leib to discuss and process the spiritual experiences of that day in order to invite them to come to us in sacred dreams that night, which will then be interpreted and worked on with Reb Yakov Leib the next morning.
We will take daily tours through the Inca's sacred valley, with the magnificent archeological ruins of the Incas and the pre-Inca peoples of the region. We will also have some time for touring, shopping and enjoying the museums, galleries and antique shops of the city of Cusco, the ancient Inca Capital city. We will visit the ancient temples and the old churches built on top of the ruins. We will visit the Cusco Cathedral, a most impressive colonial-times house of worship with all the art and relics in full dispaly.
We will travel to enjoy incredible natural sites and visit the people who still make those mountains, rivers, and valleys their home. We will take daily trips to special sites in the city of Cusco and the surrounding region, learn the deeper meanings of their Indigenous archeological ruins, hike mountains and parks, participate in indigenous spiritual practices and tour the region and its incredible wonders.
