Seeking Culture


9:00pm-10:00pm ET Mondays

Imagine a virtual space where you could cut out the small talk and get straight to the deep stuff, without judgment. Where you can talk about navigating spirituality alongside the other important intersections of your life. This year, guided by Sumanji, we’ll be exploring Hanuman Chalisa.

📆 Our Next Retreat: A Passion for Peace

Join us in Akron, OH, from June 25 – 28, for an inspiring four-day retreat designed for Exploring Adults ( 17-28 years) and Evolving Adults (29-40).

Whether you’re coming to go deep, find your people, or just finally see what a retreat is all about – this is the place to be. Expect satsangs, rich discussions, and sessions that actually make you think, all led by Vivekji, Sumanji, and Shankarji in a space that was literally built for this kind of growth!

Early bird registration closes May 31, 2026!

📆 For High Schoolers: The Search for What Matters

Join us for four-day retreat this July 6 – 9, 2026 for JCHYKs (rising high school to rising college) at Life Gurukula.

Whether you’re figuring out who you are, what you want, or just what this whole “Vedanta thing” is actually about – this retreat was made for you. Expect real conversations, dynamic sessions, and the kind of clarity that sticks, all guided by Vivekji, Sumanji, and Shankarji in a space built for exactly this.

Come with questions. Leave with direction.
