Description

If you are tired of endless suffering and ready to rediscover your total freedom, this retreat is for you. All levels are welcome. This retreat will help you realize a simple but important thing: You are NOT your thoughts, feelings, emotions. The foundation of your being is the empty and spacious Pure Awareness in which thoughts, feelings, emotions come and go. Highlights:Rediscover the foundation of Being - Pure Awareness - the natural state of the consciousness that transcends your desires and fears Tune into inner silence and stillness Abide continually in a state of freedom and peace Eliminate habitual patterns that cause suffering Practice the art of Non-Doing Rest in Pure Awareness while doing daily activities Observe your thoughts, feelings, emotions from a third-person perspective Bring your attention to Here and NowThings to Note:Please bring everything you need to meditate(blanket, mat, cushion, towel, etc.)Please bring your own lunchEgo: a sense of a fixed, separated, and independent self/entity. The ego primarily uses desiring and fearing to maintain its existence. Thus, you are restlessly fulfilling your desires and resisting your fears . Due to the non-stop seeking/resisting , You always feel exhausted and will never rest. You never go beyond a thoughts-made sense of self that is conditioned by your past. When you rest as the Pure Awareness, you'll realize that you are already complete as you are . Nowhere to go! Nothing to do.
