The Greek Path

Self Knowledge

Athens - Delphi Retreat
25-Aug to 1-Sep 2022

The Approach

"Just like the mind and heart serve the man, for humanity, that purpose is fulfilled by 'Hellas' (Greece)" Goethe said, a great poet and wise man of the 19th century. In that beloved by the gods place, democracy was born, political thinking and philosophy was founded. The Greeks manifested liberty, the sense of balance, the essence of secularism, the Olympian idea, virtuous science, the definition of the beauty of art and every other demonstration of life. Those were the bases of the western civilization. In our present times, in a world without spiritual guidance the need to return to those ancient values is more demanding than ever, the Greek perception of cosmos stands for centuries as a beacon of light.

In this 7-day trip we will try to go through this magical path. An initiatic trip that will start from Parthenon with intermediate stops in secret centers of Attica and final destination Delphi the so called "Center of the Earth".


Accompanying us in the trip, the ancient science of yoga that connects mind, body and spirit perfectly complimenting the Greek viewpoint.


Together we will discover the true nature of the gods that will cross our path (Athena, Hephaestus, Poseidon, Apollo, Dionysus) and how the Gods lead us to a path of virtues and wisdom. 


"Know thyself", the experience of our true nature is the way to liberty, innocence, unity and peace. We will be reminded of our devine self in the place where the "know thyself" was born.

Our vision is for the Delphic ideal and the sacred "namas"( sacred lifegiving water) of Castalia fountain, to refresh the thirsty for brotherhood and love, hearts of the people.

What are the possibilities

In our workshop, we use instruments of Greek legends, Greek way of thinking, contemplation, vision and yoga, we edify our soul and stir our awareness.
We recall who we truly are and what devices to use, to turn out to become better and help everyone around us to realize better aspects for themselves.
With the significant assistance of our body, we figure out how the Greek "pathway" can liberate us from fears, negative contemplations, and a wide range of enclosures.
We give constructive thoughts to the mind, motivation to the heart and improvements to the body.
Accordingly, we interact with our actual self, which is taken cover behind veils (ought to, shouldn't, and so forth) and take in our grasp the keys to individual satisfaction.

The benefits
‣ We "see" our strengths and weaknesses.
‣ We strengthen the former and weaken the latter.
‣ We open ourselves to intuition and the path of the heart, easily finding solutions and answers to our hitherto unresolved issues.
‣ We get rid of guilt and live life to the fullest.
‣ We understand why we were born and where we are going.
‣ We understand motives and behaviors of ourselves and those around us, which until now we could not explain or justify.
‣ We leave behind toxic behaviors of our own, but also of others.
‣ An unexplored potential awakens in us that pushes us to new beginnings.
‣ We wake up and walk consciously, answering who - who we really are and what we want to live.


The Gods are with us

In the valley of Delphi meet two greatest Greek Gods, Athena and Apollo.
The first is the teacher of humanity. From its hometown of Athens, Western culture spread to the rest of Europe. She can therefore be considered the Goddess of the whole western world.
The mother of speech and arts, omnipotent, feminine and masculine together, is the Goddess of creation, of the transformation of matter but also of wise discernment and rational thought.
From the divine realms he inspires people to walk the path of virtue, taming intense emotions and passions. With its aegis and spear, it protects us from emotional traps. It controls instincts, leading us to the safest ground of reason, lack of attachment and balance.
The armored Goddess fights for ideals that elevate man, to make him a god.
She is the patron and guardian of the temple of Apollo at Delphi.

Where the Illuminating God with his arrows cleanses forever the ready souls from disorder, disharmony, arrhythmia, ugliness and injustice.
The Eternal Lawgiver, Guardian of the Cosmic Order and symbol of spiritual clarity, tangible Beauty and physical Power, is the God who enlightens Man with his purifying power.
In Delphi, the LIGHT was worshiped, the Apollonian Word, which aims at the conception and understanding of the concept "Man".
The conquest of the concept of humanity leads the mortals to the conception of universal Harmony.
Man conquers the Apollonian divine realms, when with the help of the goddess of Wisdom he has harmonized the opposing forces within himself and has controlled his instincts.

What they say about us


In the three-day retreat in Aegina, I had a unique experience!
Rea and Persephone took us on a journey through ancient Greek tradition, philosophy and mythology in such a unique, so vibrant and interactive way! Before this three-day retreat, I had no idea that the Greek Gods mythology represented such profound and powerful archetypal symbolism: I came out of this experience richer in knowledge and perception of myself.
Three days rich in experiences! Visits to temples, singing of ancient Greek hymns, acquaintance with the archetypes of the Gods that we all have inside us, theatrical playe, yoga, meditation, beautiful warm and pleasant company from the participants and the organizers. We laughed, we played, we talked, we thought ...
I feel awakened by the mystical tour of the temples, reaching in me a knowledge that was always there, but illuminated in a magical way! I feel that I know better and deeper myself, but also the others around me!
I had a great time! Rea, Persephone, thank you very much for the beautiful experience. 
Elias Gratsias

Rea, my dear Priestess.
I have no more precious gift in my soul than the initiation I received from you in Amorgos of Mousagetis Apollo.
There, in the sanctuaries of Liknitis, Elefthereas, Dionysus of our heart, I remembered who I have always been! There, with your sacred guidance, I was left to a comprehensive treatment! We slept in the ancestral sanctuaries and in the morning I was a different person!
I raise the glass with the wine and weigh it:
In the Greek Light 
In Eros
In the One that is Everything and in the Everything that is One
In Memory
To the Gods that I am
In Self knowledge
On the journey
On the Return to our true Homeland
In the Brotherhood
In Unity and Love
In Freedom
Thank you for your sanctity and divinely inspired truth!
I look forward to and dream of the trip to Delphi! 
Dioni Kapsali

Aegina, Aphaia, Rea, all three names are random .... I do not think so!
Nothing is accidental.
The place chose this soul with the name Rea to convey not words, not concepts, nor knowledge, but experience and experience in simple words, without wooden words. With a touch on the heart σε awakened the memory of who we are, what our purpose is.
They opened gates of consciousness, illuminated forgotten aspects of our existence and all this in an initiating way.
It was a life experience. A shocking experience that cannot be conveyed in conventional words, as the soul weeps with emotion the moment it remembers its origin!
Thank you Rea, for this meeting on the path of revealing the truth, thank you for who you are and what you broadcast!
Elena Charopoulou

Holy teachers Persephone and Rea
Thank you from the bottom of my soul for the beautiful journey into the sanctuaries of our soul!
Aegina is a magical place anyway, but through your live teaching I saw it with different eyes. I felt ancient memories awaken in me, I was connected with the qualities of the Greek gods and my heart was filled with light. How beautifully you combined the yoga path with the Greek path of liberation! After all, they say that yoga was a practice known to Greek mystics!
I have been on the path of inner search for many years and I have studied many cultures and ways of self-knowledge.
But in Aegina a magical door opened wide inside me!
I feel blessed that with your guidance I took the step to enter the path of the Greek gods!
Infinite gratitude for the truths you shared with us so generously!
Thank you for your sanctity and sectarianism!
May through your work, the Greek light of knowledge illuminate this world again, from one end to the other!
