Please join us for an hour and a half of metta and compassion for our beloved world community. With metta practice, we cultivate an attitude of befriending, attending, and good will. We do not have to love or like what we see. With compassion, we cultivate the capacity to touch into suffering, allowing our hearts to break open.
open and relaxed awareness can help us to cultivate a broad and skillful understanding of our moment-to-moment experience. This retreat’s teachings will emphasize approaching meditation with relaxed interest. Participants will be encouraged to allow experience to be known in a simple way as it naturally unfolds. This integrated approach to practice is inspired by the teaching style of the Burmese monk Sayadaw U Tejaniya.
During this Day-Long Retreat there is the opportunity to deepen your meditation practice. We will be practicing sitting and walking meditation, there will be Dharma reflections and some time for questions and sharing. Everyone is welcome, no prior meditation experience needed
Sangha Day is a time to have fun and celebrate that diversity. All members, their families and friends, and the public at large are invited to enjoy food, music and other fun activities at Ekoji.
