In Sanskrit and Balinese, Giri means "mountain", symbolizing stability, strength and the spiritual ascent to a higher perspective, deeper purpose and truth.
Sunyata is a Buddhist concept meaning "emptiness" or infinite potential. It reflects clarity, openness and the liberation that comes from releasing attachments and illusions.
A “retreat” is a journey inward for healing, renewal, and transformation. It’s a sacred pause to reflect, reconnect and align with your true self in a nurturing and peaceful environment.
“Giri Sunyata Retreat” represents a sacred journey to inner transformation. Like a mountain “Giri”, it provides stability and strength, guiding you toward higher truths. Rooted in “Sunyata”, it offers the clarity and openness of infinite potential. As a “Retreat”, it is a nurturing sanctuary for reflection, healing, and realignment with your true self.

Our mission is to preserve the rich spiritual heritage of Nusantara, the ancient practices and wisdom, deeply rooted in Balinese culture today.
