Remember love

The Book of Love is a traditional name sometimes given to the Gospel of Mary Magdalene. Though only fragments of the text survive, it has long been associated with teachings of devotion, direct spiritual experience, and the awakening of the heart.

The Book of Love pilgrimage is an act of remembrance—of Mary Magdalene, of the sacred landscapes connected with her life, and of the living current of devotion that continues to flow through them.

Through Kundalini Yoga, meditation, storytelling, Magdalene lineage transmission, and sacred pilgrimage, we enter into conversation with these places, allowing the journey itself to become a teacher.

Getting here

  • Arrival: Because our pilgrimage departs early on Monday morning, participants should plan to arrive in Toulouse (Toulouse–Blagnac Airport (TLS) or Gare de Toulouse-Matabiau) on Sunday, October 25, 2026.

    Detailed arrival instructions, including recommended accommodations and our group departure location, will be provided upon registration.

    Guests are warmly invited to join us for an optional pre-yatra dinner on Sunday evening—a relaxed opportunity to meet one another, share a meal, and begin the journey together before our early departure the following morning.

  • Departure: The pilgrimage concludes on Thursday, October 29, 2026, with group transfers to Marseille Provence Airport (MRS) following optional morning sadhana and breakfast.

    Group Transportation: All transportation between pilgrimage sites, as well as the arrival and departure transfers listed above, is included. Once we gather in Toulouse, every aspect of the journey is taken care of, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the pilgrimage.

*An energy yatra

An important note on our journey is that The Book of Love is an active pilgrimage rather than a traditional retreat. Many of the sacred sites we will visit are reached on foot and involve moderate to vigorous hiking over uneven terrain, mountain paths, and stone stairways.

We encourage all participants to arrive with a reasonable level of physical fitness and a spirit of adventure.

More than sightseeing, this is an energy-hunting yatra—a conscious journey into places that have been revered for centuries as living centers of prayer, devotion, and revelation.

We will move deliberately through these landscapes, attuning to the unique energetic signatures of each site through Kundalini Yoga, meditation, mantra, storytelling, and Magdalene lineage transmission.

Come prepared to walk, to wonder, and to be transformed by the land itself.
