Course Overview
October 2-11, 2026
This 10-day immersive journey through key historical places in Punjab brings to life the radiance and depth of the Warrior Saint tradition of Sikh Dharma. Guided by experienced teachers of Miri Piri Academy, participants will travel through sacred landscapes of Amritsar, Anandpur Sahib, and Takht Damdama Sahib, tracing the footsteps of Guru Hargobind Sahib, Guru Gobind Singh Ji, Baba Deep Singh Ji, and the saint-scholars who embodied both spiritual devotion and fearless action.
Through daily Kundalini Yoga, mantra, Gurbani study, meditation, music, seva, and storytelling, you will experience the two swords of Miri and Piri—the balance between worldly strength and divine consciousness. Open to seekers of all backgrounds, this course offers both spiritual awakening and practical discipline rooted in the living legacy of the Khalsa. Through a combination of lectures, visits to historical Gurdwaras, and immersive meditative experiences, participants gain a deeper understanding of Sikh philosophy and practice.
Alongside this profound learning, the course offers the warmth of community, nourishing food, and the company of the international Sangat, creating an enriching and unforgettable journey of spiritual growth and discovery.
“Sant sipahi, saint and soldier is that person who will recognize the Creator is the cause of this creation. And he is doubtless about it, he knows and knowingly knows beyond doubt, in every moment of his life and that is very important. It is important for some of us to realize love in reality.”
– Siri Singh Sahib Yogiji

Hear What Others Say
Person 1
I loved the way we delved into all aspects of Japji Sahib (activating the vibration in my being with the correct pronunciation) with awareness of intention, through art and the ebb and flow of calligraphy, immersing ourselves in each sadhana. These memories and experiences of the course will remain imprinted in the depths of my heart, and with a latent and infinite gratitude.
– Dhyan Devi Kaur Khalsa (Mexico)
Japji Sahib Course Participant
Person 2
I decided to take the Japji course at MPA because I wanted to gain a holistic experience. My expectations were exceeded. Good organisation, well thought-out teaching methods, historical sites brought to life and a profound encounter with Sikh Dharma. I am very grateful!
