Retreat Dharma Talks at Gaia House

Secular Buddhist Meditation Retreat

For those who seek a practice of meditation that is secular in orientation but framed by Buddhist ethical and philosophical values. This retreat explored the role of mindfulness in embracing the suffering of life, letting go of the dictates of reactivity, experiencing the calm and clarity of spaciousness, and cultivating creative engagement as a way of being in the world.
