Is
Moinhos Velhos a Religious Retreat?
|
No and Yes! The religious philosophy of Moinhos
Velhos is that we welcome visitors of all faiths
and none. We accept all religions as equal, the
one religion to be neither better nor worse than
the other.
Moinhos Velhos is a spiritual health
retreat as we invite people to work with their spiritual,
as well as their emotional, physical and mental
detox and refreshment needs.
We are not a Christian, Islamic, Hindu,
Humanistic or any other, specifically religious,
health retreat. We believe that the God is the divine
essence within each and everyone of us.
What does mean in practice? Some illustration
may be helpful:
- we often use daily readings "Opening Doors
Within" by Eileen Caddy, who is the cofounder
of the Findhorn Foundation in Scotland. She received
these messages from God during her morning meditation.
- because of the influence of yoga
in our lives and work, our meditation temple has
many statues from the Hindu religion. To us they
depict the various aspects of the divine energies,
but we are not Hindus. In the temple there are also
images of many other spiritual masters but we do
not worship them.
- In our mealtime prayer we acknowledge
and thank the creative spirits for their contributions
in creating our food.
- Having said that Moinhos Velhos
is not specifically Christian we believe
that Jesus Christ helped to guide us to establish
a fasting retreat in this beautiful place. Jesus
was also a great advocate of fasting and detoxification.
So
if you are happy to come with an open mind and spirit
and with a curious humility this is the place
for you.
