In this retreat–welcoming all EHF cohorts–we will continue to explore the heart of freedom together. We will be deepening our cultivation of the establishment of mindfulness and the brahmaviharas. This retreat will include meditation instruction, practicing on the cushion and walking meditation, and opportunities for individual meetings with the teachers. We will also be exploring suttas, poetry, and koans through dharma contemplation, Insight Dialogue, and discussion. Our evenings will be devoted to relational practices and deepening into the themes of the day, closing with meditation and chanting in the stillness of the dharma hall.
Program Format: This retreat will include guided and silent seated meditation, walking meditation, exploration of suttas, poetry, and koans, dharma contemplation, relational practice, group discussion, and opportunities for individual meetings with the teachers.
