Reserve a Spot at Our Next Retreat in the Philippines
Our retreats are held approximately once or twice a year. You may make a deposit at any time, provided there is an upcoming retreat and you meet all the requirements listed below.
🟢 Status: The next retreat is in February 2026!
Secure Your Spot for the Upcoming Gnostic Retreat
We are now opening early registration for our upcoming retreat in February 2026. To secure your place, we kindly ask for a deposit of at least $1000. If the final cost of the retreat turns out to be less, the difference will be refunded to you. If it is more, you will simply be asked to pay the remaining balance when the time comes.
We are currently in the process of selecting a high-quality retreat center in the Philippines that offers:
• Catering three times daily
• Accommodation for at least fifty students
• Air-conditioned accommodation to ease the tropical humidity
• Access to a private beach, where we will engage in spiritual practices in nature and make conscious contact with brothers and sisters from other humanities—otherwise known as extraterrestrials.
This retreat is not only a time for deep inner work—it is also intended to be a spiritual holiday, with time to relax, rejuvenate, and recharge.
We believe a minimum of two weeks is ideal to allow for meaningful transformation. However, if we can secure a center that allows for three weeks, four weeks, or even longer—at a reasonable cost—this may be possible. In such cases, students may have the flexibility to choose how long they stay.
Originally, we planned for only 50 participants. However, the response has been overwhelming. In our online course alone, we now have over 600 students. We are deeply honored and grateful for this level of enthusiasm.
While we would love to welcome as many people as possible—creating a powerful group energy—the logistics of hosting a larger group mean we must find a higher-capacity center. This also increases the financial commitment required upfront to secure a suitable venue.
We are already working toward purchasing our own land and building a permanent spiritual center for future retreats. But for now, we must rent a location and do so in advance—before the best centers are fully booked.
That is why your early deposit is crucial. It allows us to negotiate with retreat centers more effectively and secure a space that truly supports the depth of work we will be doing. Any amount above $1000 is welcome and helpful—it will be counted toward your all-inclusive retreat fee and remains fully yours.
We may also use our own personal funds to help secure the venue, but your support lightens this burden and helps make this dream a reality for everyone.
We sincerely thank those who are able to support this vision. Your trust and contribution are deeply appreciated.
We will continue to provide updates on this page and through our course platforms on WhatsApp and Zoom.
With love,
—The Gnosis Cebu Team
Retreat Attendance Requirements
To maintain the integrity and depth of our spiritual retreats, all participants must meet at least one of the following requirements:
1. You have a foundational understanding of the Gnostic Doctrine as taught by Venerable Master Samael Aun Weor.
2. You have completed or are currently completing an online course with us prior to the retreat.
3. You are a Second Chamber student from another recognized Gnostic School.
This retreat is strictly grounded in the authentic Gnostic Teachings. Our purpose is to assist you in forming a conscious connection with the White Lodge in the Internal Worlds, to the degree your efforts and preparation allow.
If you have not yet studied Gnosis, you will need to first reach a basic level of understanding before attending. Kindly note that “generic spirituality” or “New Age” practices are not aligned with the esoteric and initiatic path of Gnosis as we teach it.
*We are open to discussing your eligibility if you are uncertain whether you qualify. Please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected] with your questions.
Additional Considerations
• The Philippines has a hot and humid climate, but February time is generally cooler (27°C average)
• Flight tickets to Asia are usually expensive from Western countries.
• There will be several hours of meditation practice each day. You are encouraged to prepare yourself in advance by cultivating the ability to enter deep states of concentration.
If you fully understand and agree with the above, you may now reserve your place using the payment link below. Once you have completed your payment, please send us your confirmation, full name, and a brief explanation of how you fulfill the participant requirements via email at [email protected].
