Manaslu Circuit  Trek
Manaslu Circuit Trek
**[Manaslu Circuit Trek](https://www.treknepalhimalayas.com/trip/manaslu-circuit-trek/)**[ ](https://www.treknepalhimalayas.com/trip/manaslu-circuit-trek/)is a raw Himalayan adventure that circles Nepal’s eighth-highest peak, offering quieter trails than the popular Everest and Annapurna routes. The journey from the lush Budhi Gandaki Valley rises through terraced hillsides, rhododendron forests, and Tibetan-style villages before cresting the dramatic 5,106-meter **[Larkya La pass.](https://www.treknepalhimalayas.com/larke-pass/)** Along the way, you experience vivid cultural exchanges, glacier views, and chances to spot blue sheep soaring at high altitudes. Trip Highlights ## Highlights of [Manaslu Circuit Trek](https://www.treknepalhimalayas.com/trip/manaslu-circuit-trek/) * **Suspension-Bridge Thrills over the Budhi Gandaki**: steel spans vaulting rainforest gorges and turquoise rapids, delivering dramatic first-week vistas and seamless village links. * **Authentic Nubri Culture**: Water-driven prayer wheels in Namrung, crimson Ribung Gompa in Lho, and yak-herding families greeting trekkers beside kilometer-long mani walls. * **Syala’s 360° Sunrise Arena (3,480 m**): Manaslu, Himal Chuli, and Ngadi Chuli blaze pink in one sweep of the eye, widely considered the circuit’s finest panorama. * **High-Value Acclimatisation Excursions:** Pungyen Gompa (4,000 m) beneath Manaslu’s south face and glacier-fed Birendra Lake offer textbook “climb high, sleep low” conditioning amid superb scenery. * **Frontier Life in Samdo (3,865 m):** last permanent hamlet before Tibet, famous for yak caravans, salt-for-barley trade lore, and commanding views of Samdo Peak. * **The trek’s ultimate achievement is Larkya La Summit Crossing (5,106 m)**: Pre-dawn snowfield ascent to a prayer-flag col revealing Cheo Himal, Himlung Himal, and distant Annapurnas. * **Epic Descent to Bimtang (3,590 m)**: One-day transition from glacial desert past Ponkar Lake to rhododendron forest and yak pastures, rewarding lungs with thicker air and trekkers with verdant sanctuary.

OSHO Kundalini Meditation
OSHO Kundalini Meditation
**Event Details** Online via Zoom **Timings** UAE 4:45 PM India 6:15 PM UK 1:45 PM *** ### ✨ The Experience We begin with a gentle introduction, allowing the body and mind to settle. From there, you will be guided into a dynamic meditative journey where movement, breath, and awareness come together to release suppressed energy and restore natural flow. The session concludes with optional sharing and reflection. **Flow for the Session** 4:45 – 5:00 PM: Introduction 5:00 – 6:00 PM: Kundalini Meditation Followed by Q&A (optional) *** ### 🌿 What is Active Meditation? Many of us carry deeply held emotions, unresolved experiences, and inner tension. When we sit in silence, these often rise to the surface, making stillness feel difficult. OSHO Active Meditations offer a different pathway. Through movement, shaking, and free expression, the body begins to release what has been held within. Energy begins to flow freely, rising, bringing lightness, openness, and a sense of inner freedom. From this space, silence arises naturally—effortless and deeply nourishing. *** ### 🌸 Joining Details **Zoom Meeting Link:** Click Here **Meeting ID:** 863 8210 8643 **Password:** divine *** ### 🌿 Preparation • A quiet, comfortable space • Yoga mat or soft surface • Eye mask or blindfold (optional) • An open mind and willingness to explore *** ### 🌼 Stay Connected Join our WhatsApp community: [https://chat.whatsapp.com/DLBuywCGOHl5KsbcPHjF97](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DLBuywCGOHl5KsbcPHjF97) *** If you have not received your Zoom confirmation email, kindly check your spam folder or search for the following: [hello@surekhasadana.com](mailto:hello@surekhasadana.com) *** With warmth, Surekha Sadana Holistic Health Coach Nutrition \| Functional Medicine \| Inner Work [www.surekhasadana.com](http://www.surekhasadana.com/)
Mathematical Minds - FREE
Mathematical Minds - FREE
The goal of this event is to foster mathematical thinking and generate the next generation of independent mathematicians. This event is divided into two segments: The first segment is a warm-up round in which we shall solve high school maths problems. Feel free to bring your own problems and books! You may also want to bring a scientific calculator. The second segment is an introduction to mathematical logic and proof-writing. The problems solved in this segment will be of a different nature. An online group will also be created for mathematical discussions and to keep a record of whatever was covered. This is essential as mathematics is a discipline that continually builds upon the knowledge accumulated so far. Make sure to bring pens and a notebook (or plenty of A4 paper, whichever you prefer). **Whatsapp link**: https://chat.whatsapp.com/FytQQgS85I61vS6nkduLm5
Am I being forced to exist, or am I at ease with being here, now?
Am I being forced to exist, or am I at ease with being here, now?
Hello everyone. This event is just a meet & greet event. Just a space to sit together. No conditions. No expectations. No agenda. We come as we are. As we sit, questions may arise Or they may not. If nothing arises, perhaps silence is enough. Let us gently look within: What do I really want? Am I truly troubled, or is it something I have assumed? Am I being forced to exist, or am I at ease with being here, now? Life is constantly unfolding. Events happen, thoughts move, emotions come and go. In the midst of all that is happening around us, in the region and beyond: What can I actually control? What truly deserves my attention? What really matters—for myself and for those around me? Can I be more simple, more practical, more steady in the current situation? Does a calmer mind respond better than a restless one? Will concern help, or does it quietly drain clarity and action? How much of what I carry is necessary—and how much is imagined? And more quietly: What is the extent of “my” influence? Where does it begin… and where does it end? If clarity comes, let it come. If silence remains, let it remain. See you at La Brioche Dubai Hills Mall. https://chat.whatsapp.com/B7hXdnRNXM05VAZo92iH3T

Yoga by the Barsha Pond Park (Gate 4)
**We ask a lot from our bodies and minds every single week.** Deadlines. Screens. Noise. Holding it all together. This Sunday morning, let’s take an hour for ourselves — outdoors, in good weather, among trees, joggers, families, and the gentle buzz of life around us. We’ll move consciously and gently, letting breath guide each pose. We’ll work through stiffness, release built-up stress, and allow emotions to soften and settle. And we’ll finish grounded and relaxed — learning how to find calm even when the world doesn’t pause. If this feels like something you need, you’re already halfway there 🙂 👉 **Join the WhatsApp group for updates & to RSVP:** [https://chat.whatsapp.com/BoOK6ejVkPEEzjIbasXccL](https://chat.whatsapp.com/BoOK6ejVkPEEzjIbasXccL) 🗓 **Sunday \| 7:30 AM** 📍 **Barsha Pond Park** — under the trees, surrounded by morning life 💳 **Event fee: AED 50** **Bring:** • Your yoga mat • A bottle of water • Your restless mind (this is a great place to practice with it Let’s meet on the mat and practice calm — not away from life, but right inside it.
