Sojourns
Three ways to come close.
Each sojourn opens at one of three depths. The right register depends on what is being asked of the lineage as much as what is being asked of you. An Introduction will help us decide together.

दर्शन
Darshan · Encounter
A first meeting. You are present in the tradition: sitting with a lineage holder, watching a practice unfold, listening to the context that surrounds it. The work asks for openness and the willingness to receive what is offered without reaching for more than the room allows.
Suitable for a first sojourn, with up to four in the party. The doors that open at this register are real, but not the deepest the tradition holds.
अंतरंग
Antaranga · Inner Access
Closer than encounter. You are no longer simply present, you have been vouched for. Days lengthen. The same lineage holder returns each morning. The conversation begins to remember its own thread, and rooms quietly open that remain closed to a first-time visitor.
For those with prior experience of the tradition, or a clear seriousness of intent. Two guests, no more.
आवरण
Avarana · Full Enclosure
A single guest, a defined period, an entire household given to the work. The Custodian is present from the first morning to the last. Every room has been made for the rhythm of the tradition rather than the comfort of the visitor.
Available only after a prior introduction, when the Custodian feels the relationship is ready. At this register, everything the tradition will offer is on the table.
An Introduction will clarify which register is appropriate. The Custodian reads the request first.
