Three-Month Retreat - Part 1
|
| The annual three-month course, including its six-week partials, is a special time for practice. Because of its extended length and ongoing guidance, it is a rare opportunity for students to deepen the powers of concentration, wisdom and compassion. Based on the meditation instructions of Mahasi Sayadaw and supplemented by a range of skillful means, this retreat will encourage a balanced attitude of relaxation and alertness, and the continuity of practice based on the Four Foundations of Mindfulness.

|
| Teachings of impermanence continually surround us. As we open our eyes to this great truth, it becomes the means of whithering away the tendency to grasp and cling.

Right Effort, Right Relaxation

|
| When we hear the word ”effort” on coming to practice, our worldly conditioning can kick in – and we interpret and associate it with striving, achieving, driving ourselves with ambition to attain, because this is the way one makes effort in the world…but the practice is not about getting anything…it is about letting go.
