Things we come to know and accept one day can dissolve the next, morphing into something new. People we love can die or move away from us. Our bodies are youthful and radiant, then over time they age and are subject to illness and pain. Natural disasters can destroy homes and lives in seconds. A small seedling latter blooms into a beautiful flower. A tiny baby becomes a dignified man. How does one stay present, steady minded and open hearted amidst this continuous and unfathomable change? During this week long retreat with Tarchin we will explore the mysteries and the beauty or living and dying.

For further information please contact Mary at mtness@clear.net.nz June 4 - August 1 Wangapeka Retreat Centre, Nelson Mind of Nature, Nature of Mind Experimental Insight Meditation: a merging of Buddhist meditation practice with Art and Science Life is a continuous flow of experimentation and improvisation. Participants will need to have some maturity in their meditation practice. Specifically, they should already have basic experience in mindfulness practice and silent retreat, and know how to recognize and care for difficult emotional states coming up within themselves, should they arise. This path of intimate enquiry requires a heartfelt reverence for all life, a passion for deepening one's understanding of self and others, and a strong inclination to be of service. Please note that the retreat will not be suitable for people wanting solitude or needing to process unresolved emotional or relationship issues. It will however be a wonderful opportunity to explore mind and nature in an experimental and contemplative fashion guided by Tarchin's more than 40 years of meditative enquiry and teaching, and his great passion for making the dharma alive and relevant for the world of today. If you are in doubt as to whether or not this retreat is suitable for you, you should get in contact with Tarchin. Preference will be given to participants registering for the entire 2 months. If there is space available it may be possible to attend for a shorter time but everyone is urged to start on June 4. During the retreat, participants will share in the cooking and the general ongoing chores that are needed to run the centre. More details to follow.
