In Search of the Sacred: The Four Phases of Spiritual Development

Vesak Retreat

May 15th - May 18th, 2025

with Robert Brumet and Victor J. Dougherty

As the wisdom holders, we need to help people find what’s important—to Grow Up by moving through the early stages of emotional maturing, Clean Up by doing shadow-work, Wake Up by doing spiritual practice, and Show Up by serving humanity everyday. Amidst the turmoil in the world and in our lives, these priorities give clarity to age or wisdom. It’s like an extended period of meditation, or spiritual practice: We sit with the wisdom of a lifetime, the knowledge of what works and what doesn’t, and reflect on how to help humanity.”

This four-day retreat will be led by Robert Brumet and Victor J. Dougherty. The retreat will be hybrid and begins 7pm Thursday May 15th and ends 12pm Sunday May 18th.

This retreat offers Residential, Commuter, and Virtual options and will be held at Savior Pastoral Center in Kansas City, Kansas.
