Listening to Silence: A Weekend of Simplicity
A weekend of simplicity, sitting, walking, eating, resting, and quiet listening…
We rarely touch in with the underlying natural stillness of reality.  Our discursive mind feels like home. But such a home is never fully satisfying. It is hard to find peace in a nest of heightened emotions and seeming relentless mental activity. From such a frantic stronghold, meditation practice is regarded as foreign and threatening, but it need not be.

When we take the time to center ourselves and tune in to the underlying silence, things feel more workable. We start to remember that silence is that essential nutrient that supports a saner relationship with every aspect of our lives.

 

If you are unable to stay for the full weekend or pay the full tuition but would still like to participate, please reach out to programs@sky-lake.org.
