The treasure of life

 

Experience and explore your good heart and the heart of society in this week of meditation, exchange and friendly community. Take time to let go of the old year and enter 2020 refreshed and relaxed. It is also possible to attend for half the week.

There will be daily talks on the Mahayana Buddhist teachings of bodhicitta, awakened heart. This is our most precious human quality and is closely related to the Shambhala notion of basic goodness. We will practice Shamatha meditation, the bodhicitta practices of loving kindness and compassion, and the Shambhala Sadhana which connects us to the basic goodness of ourselves and of society.

We begin on Saturday 28. December at 14.00 with introductions and an opening talk by Acharya David Hope. Daily practice will be from 9.30 - 18.30, with a lunchbreak from 12.30 - 14.30. We will end with a Shambhala Sadhana feast on Sat 4th January.

All talks will be in English with translation into German if requested. Discussion groups and meditation interviews will be offered in both English and German.

On January 4th there will be a Bodhissattva Vow ceremony for those who have already taken Refuge and would like to take this deeper commitment in the Buddhist path.
