How to Know the Path as You Walk

In this Zen retreat, we will include the practices of walking the land, opening awareness to sky and clouds, and sitting together in stillness.

Grass, trees, walls, tiles, and pebbles all engage in Buddha activity. We will join our practice with the surrounding landscape, a landscape of trees, grasses and sentient beings. The schedule for each day alternates sitting and walking meditation, including walking outdoors, and mindful meals. All accommodations are shared. Meals and accommodations are included in the price.

Refund policy: full refund up to February 1, 2021. No refund thereafter.
