Retreat Title: The Dynamic Mandala
Led by Tejananda
Dharma practice is transformative. This transformation lies in gradually discovering how both we and the world are not at all what we originally supposed. As a consequence, we begin to uproot the causes of dukkha. As practice deepens, the practices themselves transform. Indeed, unless this is happening, we can get stuck.
In Triratna, our system of practice can be approached as a dynamic mandala of five principles. We progressively integrate mind, body and heart, then, directly penetrating and dispelling our delusions, we open ever–more to the wonder of what is. Thus, at last, we can wake up to and be who and what we truly are.
In this retreat, we’ll take a largely somatic approach to these five principles, that is, one based in the living energy of our body and being. Through being open to the energy of the body, and by becoming attuned its actual nature, we’ll discover ways to ‘integrate’ all five principles experientially into a single, embodied ’non–practice’ of simply being.
This retreat is suitable for people who have been meditating for at least 3 years
