Anapanasati mindfulness meditation retreat
Mitra and Order member retreat at Sudarshanaloka
‘Monks, this is the direct path for the purification of beings, for the surmounting of sorrow and lamentation, for the disappearance of dukkha and discontent, for the acquiring of the true method, for the realization
of nibbāna, namely these four foundations of mindfulness.’
The Satipatthana Sutta
The Anapanasati meditation practice and four foundations of mindfulness are woven into a system of practice which when developed and cultivated is of great fruit and benefit. Based on the Buddha's principal discourse on the subject found in the Anapanasati sutta of the Pali Canon we explore our human experience rooted in the six senses; from the perspective of body, feeling and mind in context of mindfulness with breathing.
There is a solid amount of meditation on the retreat with significant periods of silence complemented by ritual and devotion. An opportunity to deepen our practice of meditation and develop positive habits of mindfulness.
It is also summer in New Zealand and there will be free time in the afternoons to enjoy the environs of beautiful Sudarshanaloka.
