Are you pulled to realize the full abiding contentment of the heart? Do you sense that possibility now?

It is the intention of this retreat to serve the needs of the more experienced student who sincerely wishes to explore the liberating depth of the Buddha’s teachings and to encourage the next step in your growth. The retreat format will include silent sitting and walking meditation, meetings with the teacher and evening dharma talks.

Experience prerequisites for this retreat: three or more years of vipassana meditation used as your primary spiritual method; plus a total of three or more retreats of one week or longer in the insight tradition; plus a willingness to challenge oneself.

 

 

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.)
