Ayni Munay – Sacred Gathering for the Blossoming of the Heart
Pawkar Raymi is a spiritual retreat and ceremonial gathering rooted in Andean wisdom traditions, hosted by the Ayni Munay spiritual community serving New York City and the Northeast United States.
This sacred celebration honors the season of flowering, a time when nature awakens, life renews itself, and the human heart is invited to open.
Just a short distance from New York City, this immersive ceremony offers participants the opportunity to step away from the intensity of urban life and reconnect with nature, community, and inner awareness.
