Opening the Golden Flower
July 9-11, 2010
Friday 7:00 pm to Sunday noon.
A Mindfulness Retreat
The Golden Flower of our lives is rich in powers of body, speech, and mind that can offer the perfume of goodness to this world. During this retreat we’ll encounter the mindfulness teachings of Esoteric Buddhism, opening the wonders of healing, transformation and continuation in this very moment.
We’ll look deeply into the miracle of our existence, practice ways to give thanks, nourish speaking well of our lives, and learn how to honor our lives as the gift to creation that they truly are.
We will gather as a community in an environment of Noble Silence,
look deeply at the teachings of the Buddha,
and enjoy mindful walking, eating, relaxing, singing, and sharing.
Come join us as we refresh our bodies, hearts and minds.
Whatever your state of mind or life circumstance, please join us. Your very best self is waiting for your love and attention. Our retreat environment and companionship will support your practice.
