Transformation and healing:
how to apply the understanding of Anicca- impermanence, Dukkha - unsatisfactoriness and Anatta - no-owner, when faced with challenges in one's life

7th (eve) – 12th June
Cost: £205

When all is well in our life, we are full of confidence and we seem invincible.

The practice of meditation, in particular the three characteristics of
Anicca / impermanence, Dukkha / unsatisfactoriness and
Anatta / no-owner, do not really sink in.

waterfall picWe have all heard these three realities, nodding our head in understanding but until we are directly and personally affected with unexpected and challenging events, we only “pay lip service” to these three truths.

So can we find a refuge in the three characteristics?

We will study in depth how the three characteristics are already woven in the fabric of our life. And how we can bring them more to the fore front in our daily life to come to a state of peace and acceptance in us.

This is what I invite you to discover during this retreat.

Costs include accommodation and course fee. Participants need to bring food to share and dana for the teacher

DANA

In the tradition of the Buddha, Dharma teaching is given freely.
The course fees for the meditation retreats cover organising the retreats, running costs of the centre, accommodation and rental of Maitreya House/Cwm Cottage,
At the end of each retreat students are invited to give dana to the teachers for their guidance, time and availability.

Dana bowl

Dana is a Pali word meaning "generosity, offering" and is one of the virtues that supports the letting go and the loosening of "self".
Dana reflects the value you place on the teaching and appreciation for the guidance of the teacher, the joy of giving and what is realistic for you. Each participant arrives at the amount voluntarily.There will be a talk on the practice of dana during each course.
