Join us for our December Awakening Week, a silent retreat week where the conditions are uniquely set up to allow immersion in our practice and technique. The goal of creating this container of practice, in which we set aside distractions such as technology and communication (both written and verbal), is to allow our aspiration for classical enlightenment to be realized. The schedule includes guided meditations, Q&A’s, Dharma talks, and frequent one-on-one interviews, and you will be training alongside the full-time residents and apprentices at the Monastic Academy. This retreat will be taught by Soryu Forall.
For group silent meditation retreat weeks, we ask that you arrive two days before the retreat officially starts and leave two days after the retreat officially ends. (So, for 7 day retreats; arriving on Wed and leaving on Sun.) These nights are included in the price. Please fill out a guest interest form or returning guest interest form if you’re interested in attending, and we will be in touch shortly.
