This is an unparalleled knowledge retreat.
This retreat is for two types of people:
1. Those who want to learn & receive deep self-healing practices under the guidance of expert Vaidyas. This is not just a retreat, it is a specialised 7-day treatment.
2. Health practitioners of any modality who want to expand their repertoire of healing techniques and develop dhanvantari siddhis (healing capabilities).
Spaces are limited to ensure an intimate experience and to preserve the potency of this rare and ancient wisdom.
Wybalena Organic Farm is set amongst serene countryside and untouched bushland within the Byron Bay hinterland, NSW Australia.
*Limited availabilities to stay on-site*
and will book out.
“Day-tripper” options available but also are limited.
“Marma points” are the store houses of concentrated prāṇa (life-force energy) located throughout the body. Marma points are the source of knowledge for acupuncture points.
Most marma knowledge has been lost, but the Raju family hold rare expert knowledge in marma.
Learn techniques to enliven the marmas on the subtle and powerful (sūkṣma) levels of the physiology to heal, protect and enliven various layers of yourself and others.
This sacred knowledge is to be practiced under the guidance of the Vaidyas only.
Feeling your own pulse is a self-referral mechanism that triggers self-healing.
While meditation is transcendental, self-pulse expands consciousness with awareness.
Experience unbounded awareness while simultaneously receiving dynamic information. Know your body, mind, emotional body and higher Self on a deep level.
The Raju family are considered to be the foremost masters in pulse diagnosis in the world today.
Each day you will deepen and expand pulse and marma practices and knowledge as the group synthesis each-other’s energy and experiences while giving and receiving the techniques taught.
There is no guarantee of what you learn and receive on this retreat.
We cannot guarantee any set program, for it is based on the collective consciousness, experiences and questions of the group and what you bring to the sessions at the time.
Each student can receive personalised initiation and instruction (upadeśa) into various methods, as well as personalised assessment and feedback from the Vaidyas based on your techniques.
There is a registration process to join the retreat to maintain a certain level of knowledge within the group.

Absolutely. Doing BT for 3-5 days while on retreat allows for a deepening into the treatment due to the levels of relaxation, less demands, meals provided for you, and the other healing you will be receiving from the techniques being learnt enhances the BT effect. You can request for milk rice from our catering team.
The Vaidyas recommend doing BT every second day so that you can eat normal food. This way, you have more energy for the marma practice.
The deposit is non-refundable.
We strongly encourage the purchase of “trip cancellation insurance” for protection against any potential loss of fees.
Yes, if they are respectful and quite within the wisdom and practical sessions. Young babies are fine.
Children can be present during the sessions if they are quite. If not, the venue is a large farm with plenty of land + a communal living room for children to play. If your child is a loud one, we recommend hiring a nanny/carer to look after them while you immerse in the learning.
If your child or nanny/carer is eating the catered food, there will be a catering fee for them.
There will be a “WhatsApp group” where we will make announcements, share knowledge and experiences and for all participants to communicate with each other, from arranging to share accommodation (if you are staying outside the retreat centre) and other practical information and announcements.

We pay our respects to the traditional custodians and caretakers of the lands on which we treat, teach, work and live. Vital Veda headquarters work on Bundjalung country which is now commonly known as Byron Shire, Northern Rivers NSW Australia. We also frequently work on Gadigal land, now known as Sydney, Australia. We recognise the traditional custodians have never ceded sovereignty and their culture remains strong and holds supreme wisdom for all of humanity to enjoy.
