Benedictine Silent Retreats

The Asrivanam Retreat Center offers Benedictine Silent Retreats for those who seek a deeper encounter with God through stillness, solitude, and prayer. In a world filled with constant noise and distraction, these retreats provide a sacred space to step back, be still, and listen attentively to the voice of God.

About the Silent Retreat

Silence lies at the heart of the Benedictine spiritual tradition. Our silent retreats invite participants to withdraw from external distractions and enter into a rhythm of prayer, contemplation, and interior listening. Through sustained silence, retreatants are encouraged to deepen their awareness of God’s presence and rediscover inner peace.

These retreats are especially suited for those desiring:

  • Deeper contemplative prayer
  • Spiritual renewal and discernment
  • A profound experience of silence and solitude
  • A closer union with God

Duration

Silent retreats are offered for a period of up to 30 days, allowing participants ample time to settle into silence, prayer, and reflection at their own pace.

Retreat Environment

Set within the tranquil surroundings of our monastery campus, the retreat center provides an atmosphere of profound quiet and simplicity. The silence of the campus, combined with participation in the Divine Office, supports a sustained contemplative experience rooted in the Benedictine way of life.

Who Can Attend?

Silent retreats are open to:

  • Priests
  • Religious men and women
  • Seminarians
  • Laypersons seeking a deeper spiritual experience
