All Day
Residential Weekend Retreat
With Senior Tergar Instructor Edwin Kelley
Janesville, Minnesota, USA
Fresh mind is the mind that is open without expectation. It is the mind that is able to meet life fully in this moment. It allows us to let go of habituated patterns and ways of behavior that close us down. During this weekend, we will have the opportunity to come back to that fresh mind that is unhabituated.
Meditation helps us to discover a deep sense of well-being that is not dependent on the circumstances of our lives. When we learn to tame our minds and open our hearts through the practice of meditation, we discover the compassionate wisdom and radiant joy that is our true nature.
This residential retreat will offer a unique opportunity to gather together as a community to deepen and refresh our practice. In his recent letter while on retreat, Mingyur Rinpoche said: “To all my students …. I ask that you persevere as much as possible in your practice …. and especially if you have time, do as much retreat as you can regardless of how long or short it is.” We are hoping you can join us for this deeper exploration into practice.
Whether you have never done a retreat before or are a seasoned practitioner, this is a good opportunity to taste the benefits of sustained practice.
