Affirming Experience: Meeting Our Inner And Outer Life Just As It Is
With our thoughts, we create the world.
When living a full life of daily interactions and responsibilities, we can be swept up and swept away in a whirlwind of busyness. Feelings, body perceptions are easily lost; we lose touch. We can be separated from the immediacy of the moment. Entering a meditation retreat can allow us time to slow down, space to be with what arises and falls away, and create the conditions for calm to meet and be with life just as it is. And then, investigating the process of life unfolding, just perhaps, to meet our experience with greater ease.
Cultivating Tranquility
Cultivating Tranquility Silent Weekend Retreat
Stan Eisenstein
This is a hybrid event. The deadline for in-person registration is August 15, 2025, and the deadline for online registration is August 27, 2025.
Tranquility is essential to wise discernment and freedom. When our minds and bodies are caught in activation we cannot see clearly. Only when the mind is calmed do we have the capacity to untangle from the ways we get stuck in life.
Tranquility is one of the Seven Factors of Enlightenment, and it leads to deepened focus and concentration. This cultivation of tranquility helps us not only in our own lives but also influences those around us. During this silent retreat, through dharma talks, group meetings with the teacher, meditation instruction, personal meditation, and gentle movement practices, you will be guided to practice cultivating direct experiences of tranquility.
