As a spiritual centre, Creacon Lodge Prema Agni Retreat Centre is more than just a place to visit. It is an experience. It is an opportunity to allow yourself a gift, that once opened, can bring lasting effects for the heart and soul of any who visit.

 

Whether you walk this journey as a teacher, healer, doctor, mom, or seeker of further spiritual development, you'll find a most sacred and nurturing environment here. A place where any outer stresses of life can be transformed, and great clarity arises.

"Spiritual growth results from the soul absorbing and digesting spiritual truth and putting into practice the simple spiritual laws in daily life. A man or woman may have a remarkable intellectual knowledge of music, but intellectual knowledge does not necessarily make a musician. Spiritual training goes much deeper than the mind, it must become a way of life."  While here, you have the opportunity to reflect, be still, and find warmth in your heart as the Prema Agni, "Fire of Divine Love," is re-ignited.

...And as you can see from spiritual aspirants below, much time for deep, sacred, spiritual contemplation!

Ingredients;

1 tablespoon Olive Oil

1 Bay Leaf

2 basil leaves

2 bunches parsley

1/2 yellow onion finely chopped

1 clove garlic minced

Salt, pepper and vegan sugar to taste

(Optional) vegetarian cheese substitute.

Fresh herbs: oregano, marjoram, basil, chopped for garnish

Method;

Heat olive oil and add fresh tomatoes, bay leaf, basil, parsley, onion, and garlic. Cook for 30 minutes until tender. Pass through food mill. Return to saucepan and add vegan sugar to balance acidity. Season with salt and pepper. Bring 4 1/2 cups of water to a boil and add 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt. Whisk in the cornmeal in a stream so that there are no lumps. Use wooden spoon and stir until smooth. Let cool. Take out of pan and slice into 1/2 inch x 3 inch long pieces. Preheat oven to 400.

Lightly grease au gratin dish, spread out 1 cup of tomato sauce over the bottom. Arrange polenta, sliced eggplant, and crumbled cheese in overlapping layers. Spoon retaining tomato sauce over layers to create bands of red sauce, yellow polenta, and cheese. Crumble desired cheese over top and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Slice. Serve over wilted greens such as spinach. Buon Appetito!!
