Description

If you are tired of endless suffering and ready to rediscover your total freedom, this retreat is for you. This retreat helps you rediscover and reconnect the foundation of your being -Pure Awareness . When you feel stressed or anxious, you've tried to relieve your negative feelings with alcohol, entertainment, balancing chakras, massage, acupuncture, mediation, holistic healing..... However, stress will come back soon because these things are only temporary reliefs, not cures. Is there really a cure to completely end all your suffering? Yes. It's simply the elimination of your ego, a sense of a fixed, separated, and independent self. As long as the ego remains, you are either seeking things you like or resisting things you hate in everyday life. Due to the restless seeking/resisting , your life becomes a battlefield and you always feel exhausted and will never rest. You never go beyond a thoughts-made sense of self that is conditioned by your past. In short, you are NOT your thoughts, feelings, emotions. You are the empty and spacious space - Pure Awareness in which thoughts, feelings, emotions come and go.
