AWAY RETREAT - The Magic of Meditation: The Healing Breath

Details

It is said we can measure our life in the number of breaths we take. We are breathing all the time. How wonderful it would be if we could give every breath special value. It would make our life truly meaningful. This can really happen through meditation, especially the magical practice of Taking and Giving.

Taking and Giving is a powerful meditation for bringing love, compassion and wisdom quickly and directly into our lives. Imagine becoming the kind of person who can solve all their own problems of anger, jealousy, attachment and other delusions. Someone who has a special method for dealing with their own sickness. Someone who has stable happiness and whose boundless good heart is a source of inspiration and benefit to others. Imagine being a person of whom everyone could say they were better for having met you. With Taking and Giving we can be that person. We can transform who we are.
Kelsang Khacho will introduce us to the special meditations which make up Taking and Giving. She will explain the profound wisdom which makes this practice work – and how what begins as correct imagination in meditation produces very real and practical effects in our daily lives. Based on personal experience, she will give us the inspiration and confidence we need to try this special magic for ourselves.
In this retreat, silence will be observed from Friday after the Introduction to Sunday at 12noon. For those who find it challenging to observe full silence, there will be designated areas where you can quietly speak to others after 12noon on Saturday.
