Sage Warrior Retreat

Cultivating Courage in Uncertain Times

This is a historic moment. In Minneapolis and across the country, people are putting their bodies on the line in the face of brutality. As we witness the suffering unfolding around us, many of us are asking the same questions: What is mine to do? How do I show up?

This is a moment to gather.

I’m honored to invite you to the first-ever Sage Warrior Retreat—a weekend immersion in ancestral wisdom, music, and beloved community, April 17–19 at Kripalu in Massachusetts.

This gathering is a sacred pause in a world on fire: a space to reflect, listen, and awaken the courage within us that knows how to love in times like these.

This retreat is a living exploration of my book Sage Warrior as a catalyst for transformation—for your inner life, your relationships, and how you meet this moment in history. Guided by Sikh ancestral wisdom, song-prayers, and the practice of Revolutionary Love, we will journey together into what it means to become sage warriors: the sage sees through the eyes of love, and the warrior puts that love into action.

I will be joined by my longtime brother and acclaimed musician Sonny Singh, whose live musical meditations will drop us beneath the noise of the moment and open the doors of our hearts. Together, we will create a container that is both gentle and brave, a communal journey that unlocks insights for our lives and our labors.

This retreat is for seekers, leaders, caregivers, and anyone feeling called to meet this moment with integrity, clarity, and courage. No prior experience with activism, spirituality, or retreat spaces is required—only a willingness to listen deeply, reflect honestly, and show up with care.

Together, we will:

Explore the core teachings of Sage Warrior and Revolutionary Love

Practice seeing through the eyes of wonder and waking to Oneness

Learn to respond to the world not from the wound, but from wisdom

Attune to grief as a teacher, honoring the depth of love it reveals

Harness rage and listen to what it reveals about what truly matters

Build a sovereign inner space that offers the energy to be brave with our lives

Practice beloved community and fortify one another with courage

I want to acknowledge that the cost of an in-person retreat can be a real consideration. If joining us at Kripalu is not accessible for you at this time, you are warmly invited to participate in the live virtual Sage Warrior sessions, which carry the same spirit of reflection, practice, and courage.
