10-DAY TRANSFORMATION RETREAT
An opportunity for determined spiritual seekers to reach new depths of reality and real freedom
A Quantum Leap
Use this Retreat to dive into new depths and discover your true nature. In stillness, you can watch your mind at work and act from a new depth. Dive into new perspectives on LIFE and deepen your knowledge.
These 10 days provide a unique opportunity to get answers to every seeker’s questions. Who am I, and why am I here? Together we get insight into the dimensions of the human condition. With the energy of an experienced team and all participants, we can propel each other to discover our true selves and to the edge of awakening and beyond.
please note: This is NOT a wellness retreat, a yoga vacation or a plant medicine ceremony. We use no external means.
Why 10 Days?
Much the same scuba divers must adapt their bodies to deeper depths so do we need to get accustomed to working with the amount of energy and light that is generated at our retreats. And this takes time.
It takes time to prepare your psycho-physical state to attend the retreat.
It takes time to get accustomed to the retreat energetic field.
It takes time to become still and dive into the true depth of our being.
It takes time to smoothly return from this depth and go back to our homes.
It takes time to learn how to live from this depth once we return to our lives.
The smooth entry and exit from the retreat space allows us to focus on the joy, happiness and pleasure you can attain from deep practice. And remember, every second of each stage of this retreat is dedicated to helping you reach an even deeper state of stillness from which the magic of true awakening happens.
The Adventure of Awakening
All major religions, spiritual teachers, and sacred writings share the fundamental message that we are all one. On our retreat, you will have the chance to experience this truth personally.
Embarking on the journey of awakening is a transformative adventure and one of the greatest blessings in life. It leads to a complete shift in our perception of ourselves and our world.
The unwrapping of our true self, our realigning with the life-forces which are sleeping in us, touch every aspect of our lives, including how we relate to ourselves, our loved ones, and the world around us. As we navigate this process, we may encounter challenging situations requiring additional support.
At World of Awakening, we offer guidance and support to those who find themselves stuck in place on their path of deep awakening or seek deeper clarity and understanding regarding their journey and the spiritual path as a whole.
We create a safe environment and welcome you to explore your personal questions on various topics, including spiritual practice, lifestyle, relationships, diet, and more.
Make now the decision to join our community and embark on this transformative journey.

Cleansing - The Process of Purification
At the retreat, both instructors and participants will be immersed in an abundant amount of energy. Throughout the retreat, you’ll be able to shed outdated mental patterns, bad habits, and old programs, enabling you to attain a higher degree of freedom in your life.
This purification process occurs naturally as we progress forward and continue to evolve.
Clarity - Focus on Understanding
The primary objective of the retreat is to provide you with the opportunity to grasp the breadth of our mission in your own unique way.
This encompasses understanding what Deep Awakening is and why we choose this prooven methodology in order to contribute to your finding of your true nature, purpose, and potential actions.
This objective is enhanced by profound experiences that facilitate a deeper awakening and offer insight into what future steps on the journey may entail.
Insight - A new reality
Underestimating the difficulty of completely exiting the matrix we live in is a common pitfall among spiritual practitioners worldwide. Even with the desire to do so, numerous misconceptions hinder achieving this goal.
The “Depth of The Problem” refers to the level of control the mind exerts over our lives and the entanglement that keeps us bound to this illusion. During the retreat you will be able to see this reality in order to be able to overcome it.
Presence - Living from the present moment
The retreat allows us to detach ourselves from the mind, which empowers us to observe it in our daily lives and take steps to liberate ourselves from its control. We refer to this state as “Presence”.
Being in the “present moment” and act from the here and now is a skill that is taught and practiced during the retreat and beyond, allowing you to engage with any situation without becoming fully absorbed by it.
For anyone seeking to elevate their level of consciousness, mastering this skill is essential.
What You Will Experience
The Power of Collaboration in Awakening
As a team member, you play a crucial role in the awakening process. The state of each individual directly affects the entire group, and therefore, personal cleansing is not an individual endeavor during the retreat.
The collective “we” is more important than the individual “I” behind personal cleansing.
With dedication and passion toward others, you create a powerful synergy effect that enables every group member to achieve better results in geometric progression.
Remember, giving is receiving in this context.

Who Are We?
World of Awakening is an international spiritual school dedicated to one goal. Exiting the cycle of samsara/matrix, also known as enlightenment or ascension in one lifetime.
It is a direct continuation of an unbroken chain of enlightened teachers and students from Western Europe, sometimes referred to as the school of “Primordial Sound”. Paradanta Meditation is a unique practice which is a direct part of the school that currently only Genadiy teaches in the world.
This knowledge was kept alive and given to only a select few until now. Given the state of the world, the global process of awakening and the speed of human evolution, this knowledge is now more important than ever. As a result, Genadiy, our teacher, began establishing our school in its modern form in Riga, Latvia circa 2010.
What makes the school so unique is that the methodology has been modified to fit modern people and keeps being improved by our teacher Genadiy.
So far, the school has helped more than a hundred of its students to cross the point of awakening. And helped thousands heal, find their purpose and begin their spiritual journey.
Our Teacher
Genadiy was born in Riga, Latvia. He was a very healthy and strong child, so from an early age he was engaged in swimming, and starting in eighth grade in boxing, sambo, and karate, he later became a master of sports. Genadiy combined his successful sports career with an education at Riga Technical University.
In the 10th grade, he met awakened people. The experience he received radically changed his attitude to life and aroused a great desire to learn what was available from these people.
Subsequently, one of these people sent Genadiy to an awakened man who worked in the field of cosmonautics, who opened him to a different path of deep knowledge.
Throughout his conscious life, Genadiy transmits knowledge. People come to him from all over the world. Today he shares his expertise through a team of students from Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Ukraine, America and more. This transmission is conducted through formats like Retreats, Paradanta Meditation, Satsangs and other courses.
The Retreat Team
Following are the different members of World of Awakening that
guide, organize, support, conduct and instruct on our retreats.
Frequently Asked Questions
If you have not practiced any spiritual techniques or theory before, the retreat will still be effective and beneficial for you. In fact, previous experience may sometimes hinder your progress as it may cause you to hold onto labels and concepts that could impede your ability to perceive the practice freely.
Experienced practitioners will also be asked to put their knowledge aside during the retreat and follow the recommendations of the instructor as if they were new to the practice.
The most important factor that determines the effectiveness of the retreat is your willingness and determination to follow all the guidelines and instructions provided by the instructors.
To prepare for the retreat, it is recommended that you follow the daily routine outlined in the preparation course and the recommendations provided by your guide and the retreat instructors. Take the time to learn all the elements presented in the online preparation course, and do not hesitate to ask your guide any questions you may have.
It is important to exclude the use of alcohol, drugs, plants of power, food additives, or smoking cigarettes at least five days before the retreat, during it, and for five days after it. Additionally, switch to a vegan diet for at least five days before the retreat, during it, and for five days after it.
Comply with the stillness mode, which means refraining from listening to music, watching movies and videos, reading books, intimate relationships, or anything that may excite your mental activity for at least five days before the retreat, during it, and for five days after it.
It is recommended that you wear comfortable clothes that enable you to participate in the physical exercises during the retreat.
By following these guidelines, you can prepare yourself both physically and mentally for the retreat, which will enhance the effectiveness of the experience.
To maximize the effectiveness of the retreat and allow for a complete change in your usual actions and mental state, all phones, computers, and other gadgets must be handed over to the organizers for the duration of the retreat.
While phones and other devices have become a ubiquitous part of modern life, they are associated with numerous daily tasks and activities that excite mental activity. To truly understand and experience the School’s methodology deeply, it is important to calm your mind and cultivate inner stillness.
If you have any concerns about issues that may arise during the retreat, please make arrangements before the retreat begins to ensure that they are taken care of. By fully immersing yourself in the retreat and adhering to the guidelines, you will be able to gain the most benefits from the experience.
The restrictions before the retreat, such as switching to a stillness mode, excluding certain foods, and avoiding alcohol and tobacco, are put in place to create a deeper immersion in the practice. By removing external distractions and sources of mental activity, participants can enter a deeper state of stillness and accumulate internal energy.
Listening to music, watching movies, reading books, having sex, and overeating can all create mental activity and distract from the deeper work that is necessary during the retreat. By avoiding these activities before and during the retreat, participants can better focus on the practices and teachings and allow for a more transformative experience.
The purpose of the pre-retreat restrictions is to help participants achieve a deeper understanding of their nature and realize their potential more quickly. By committing to the stillness mode and following the guidelines provided by the instructors, participants can create an optimal environment for inner work and personal growth.
If you have any medical conditions, injuries, or are on a special diet recommended by your doctor, please inform us in advance before starting the retreat, preferably when filling out the questionnaire. This will allow the instructors and organizers to be aware of your health status and provide you with any necessary recommendations to ensure your safety and well-being during the retreat.
We take your health and safety seriously, and we want to ensure that all participants have a positive and transformative experience. By informing us of any medical conditions or limitations, we can tailor the retreat experience to best accommodate your needs.
The use of alcohol and tobacco is prohibited during the retreat as the practices and activities involved in the retreat already put a significant strain on the body and mind, including the cleansing of accumulated tension and mental programming.
In addition, alcohol and tobacco can also have a negative impact on one’s mental clarity and ability to fully engage in the retreat practices. By abstaining from these substances, yoiu can better focus on the inner work and fully immerse themselves in the retreat experience.
Combining the retreat with the consumption of alcohol or other psychotropic substances may result in serious harm to your health.
Since 75-80% of the energy we have is spent on digesting food, we can help our body get rid of accumulated stress by switching to a plant-based diet. This diet requires less energy to digest. It means that your body-mind will cleanse and rebuild faster.
Additionally, a vegan diet is often rich in nutrients, fiber, and antioxidants, which can support overall health and well-being. It can also promote a more mindful and compassionate relationship with food and the environment.
