Entering Openness

This seven-day retreat is devoted entirely to silent meditation practice, supported by quiet nature walks, mantra chanting, and body awareness practices.

Designed as a highly practice-focused experience, it includes many silent breaks as well. Guidance will be offered during sessions as needed, and some sessions will include space for sharing and questions. Smaller groups in the same language will be formed when necessary.

"The lucid openness of meditation offers the opportunity to transcend the judgmental mind and free ourselves from the thoughts and emotions it produces"
Practices on the Buddhist Path pag. 43

For participants with some basic meditation experience who would like to deepen their practice, selected text excerpts from Practices on the Buddhist Path and other books by Tarthang Tulku will be shared to help clarify specific stages and obstacles in meditation.
