Indralaya

Indralaya is a sanctuary of natural beauty and peace located on Orcas Island in the San Juan Islands of Washington State, USA.

Indralaya was founded in 1927 by members of the Theosophical Society as a practical experiment in applying theosophical living. These principles continue to form the basis of our philosophy, community life, and programs. In Indralaya's unique environment, individuals and families are encouraged to live in cooperative harmony with nature and each other, experiencing the interconnectedness of all fo

rms of life while exploring individual pathways to wholeness. Since its founding, a strong sense of community has been at the heart of Indralaya. Throughout the course of its 89 year history, many have volunteered time and assistance to the camp. As participants in an ongoing experiment in theosophical living, campers not only take part in programs and discussions, they also share meals, after-meal chores, and other endeavors. The camp encompasses seventy-eight acres of forest, meadows, and trails, situated along three quarters of a mile of coastal shoreline. We share this space with rabbits, deer, owls, mink, squirrels, sea otter, bald eagles, and other wildlife. The camp offers a wide variety of programs. There is also daily meditation, trail walks, a small bookshop, and a surprisingly well-stocked metaphysical library. From June through August the facilities are used almost continuously for programs. Weekend programs and “work parties” are held during the spring and fall months

Maximum occupancy is ninety-five people. Visitors are accommodated in simple rustic sleeping cabins warmed with wood burning stoves. Most cabins share a nearby bathhouse, while a few have self-contained plumbing.

Join us for an exploration of the practical applications of theosophy with Juliana Cesano, National Secretary of the Theosophical Society in America!

The book "Light on the Path" by Mabel Collins has long been a touchstone for spiritual seekers, especially within the Theosophical Society. Though shaped by an ancient wisdom, its teachings speak directly to modern seekers, revealing step-by-step counsel for spiritual self-transformation.

For many, the real challenge lies not in appreciating these teachings, but in understanding how to distill and embody their truths in everyday life. During this program we will explore practical approaches for bridging that gap, focusing on how to bring the essence of theosophical wisdom into actions, attitudes, and relationships. Together, we will work to uncover how the fruit of these teachings can ripen in our own experience, making them relevant and alive.

Join us to:

Discover the timeless wisdom at the heart of Light on the Path.
Explore the aphorisms with openness, considering how they can naturally support your daily life.
Try gentle practices inspired by the text, noting how they affect thoughts and actions.
Develop personal daily rituals that help keep the teachings close to heart throughout the day.
Engage in self-observation exercises and meditation practices based on the teachings.
Create personalized cards featuring the rules, nurturing mindful intention and creativity.
Support one another by sharing reflections and real-life experiences of bringing these teachings into daily moments.
