Pir Zia in the Netherlands: Lecture & Retreat
August 21st – 23rd, 2026
The Hague & Katwijk aan Zee, Netherlands


Life is more than a journey — it is a pilgrimage, a voyage of devotion, surrender, and ecstasy. The sacred shrines of the world stand as living symbols of the waystations along the path to the Divine. The Universel Murad Hassil, rising from the dunes of Katwijk, is one such shrine. The weekend opens on Friday evening with an open lecture in The Hague, followed by a two-day retreat at the Murad Hassil, where we gather as pilgrims — offering our homage to the Divine light glimmering in the dunes as we advance into the Mystery from which all life has come.
