Retreat Dharma Talks

Essential Teachings on the Path of Awakening

In mindfulness meditation, we practice resting, looking deeply, knowing moment-by-moment what it's like to be human. Together, we'll sit in the refuge provided by a 2,600-year legacy of wisdom and kindness. In the silence, we come to know the preciousness of our life and the poignancy of the human condition. From this openness, so much goodness unfolds.
