Dancing with Change
An Online Insight Meditation Retreat
May 29-31, 2020
Flowering Lotus Meditation and Retreat Center - Chatawa, Mississippi
There’s a saying in India that “The world is like a grinding stone. It will either grind you up or it will turn you into something beautiful.” In this unprecedented time generated by the COVID-19 pandemic, this aphorism takes on an entirely new level of meaning. This first-ever online retreat for the Flowering Lotus community will be a powerful exploration of the ways in which Buddhist teachings can help us to transform ourselves into something beautiful. While this is a very challenging time in many ways, it’s also a time that offers extraordinary opportunities to see the benefits of Dharma practice in our lives.
Deepening Your Practice
An Insight Meditation retreat for experienced students
August 17-23, 2020
Rocky Mountain Ecodharma Retreat Center - Jamestown, Colorado
This retreat is for those who want to deepen their practice and to listen to what the Thai meditation master Ajahn Chah called “the one who knows.” Ultimately, spiritual maturation involves learning to trust our own inner guidance and resting in the felt realization that we already are what we seek. In a caring, supportive environment, we’ll practice sitting and walking meditation in silence. There will be dharma talks on the retreat theme as well as guided meditations and some interactive exercises that highlight the transformative power of the teachings.

A New Year's Retreat

The primary focus of this retreat will be the practice of sitting and walking meditation while keeping silence.
