9th ANNUAL YATRA (PILGRIMAGE) FOR 10 DAYS.

Christopher, Christelle, Chad, Zohar and other teachers.

A Yatra is a pilgrimage. Men, women and children have gone on walking pilgrimages for thousands of years.

Join our Dharma Yatra in Dordogne in the south of France from July 30th to August 9th, 2009. Our Yatra is run entirely on donations (dana) to cover all the running costs, and donations for teachers etc.

The 2009 Yatra will begin near the the town of St Jean de Cole.

The nearest train station and place to leave cars is Thiviers which is to the south of Limoges.

If you are flying in then Limoges is the best airport to choose. The Yatra will end at Le Moulin Meditation Centre, Le Maine, 24640 Cubjac.

Cubjac is 120km from Bordeaux Airport, 90 minutes from Limoges and Bergerac airports and 25 minutes from Périgueux railway station.

Périgueux is on the same line as Thiviers.

We are receiving registrations nearly every day. Itís not full yet but the number of participants is limited and it would be better for us to know how many we will be as soon as possible.

If you feel like driving one of the trucks, please send a colour copy (a scan is ok) of your driving licence now.

If you feel ready to get involved in organising the site or the kitchen, please, tell us, it can make things easier.

There are places for 120 men, women and children.

The 2009 French Yatra will be our ninth annual yatra with a team of dharma teachers and expressions of music, poetry and theatre during the yatra.

If you require further information about the Dharma Yatra, and you cannot locate it in this website, then send an e-mail to the address below. Please keep your e-mail with any questions rather precise. Thank you.

Do join. It is a wonderful event.
