Les marches initiatiques comprennent des marches à travers les paysages majestueux de l'Himalaya et des satsangs quotidiens (enseignements) en français et en anglais. Les marches sont en silence. La parole reprend à l'arrivée dans les camps.
L'esprit des marches initiatiques: Accueillir le moment présent - Lâcher prise - s'adapter - Faire confiance - Écouter ses ressentis intérieurs - Laisser le naturel s'exprimer.
