Sometimes deep
in the emerald forest
where fantails dance
and disappear,
self dissolves through
sunlight shimmers,
portals open
to hidden realms...
...from 'Living Nature' by Karunajoti
For this retreat we'll be exploring the theme of 'Living Nature' through walking, sitting, observing and experiencing the elemental nature of life through the senses.
Supported by the elements we will dive into the Buddha's teachings on conditionality, impermanence and change. Through the doorway of the elements we will connect with the Mandala of the five Buddhas and the qualities of Enlightenment.
There will be opportunities for simply being in The Land of Beautiful Vision, as well as wandering in the wild beauty of our surroundings. There will also be periods of silence, reflection, meditation and ritual.
Suitable for those who are familiar with our meditation practices.
