RETREAT DESCRIPTION

In a lifetime, we experience so many different situations and circumstances. How can we infuse the Dhamma into every one of them? Fortunately, the Buddha gave us many guidelines and methods for this. He often spoke about how a Noble Disciple thinks, speaks and acts in everyday life experiences. We will rely on these teachings from the Pali Suttas to explore our own challenges and develop practices and habits for infusing every aspect of our lives with Dhamma, for our own benefit and for the benefit of others.

The retreat will take place in Noble Silence and include daily meditation instructions, Dhamma talks, Q&A and practice meetings with the teachers. This retreat is appropriate for beginning and experienced meditators. Its format is designed to give those who want more structure the framework and support they need, and to give seasoned practitioners the freedom and flexibility to guide their own schedule.

 

Partial attendance is not offered on this retreat. Additionally, please consider attending this retreat only if your current life circumstances allow you to engage in an important modern renunciation practice of staying offline and off phone/text during the entire course of the retreat (some exceptions related to pressing family situations may be granted.)
