Calm and Clear ~ Day Retreat
with Gen Kelsang Dema
Resident Teacher of Uma KMC, Carlisle
Saturday 11 september
“If we want to drink from a mountain stream we do not drink from the turbulent part, because the water there will be mixed with dirt and silt; rather we drink from a calm part of the stream where the water is clean and clear. Similarly if we want to attain a calm and clear mind, we must pacify the turbulence of conceptual distractions”
Clear Light of Bliss by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.
We will discover the essentially pure and peaceful nature of our own mind through clear explanations and beautiful guided meditations. We will also learn methods to free our mind of distracting thoughts and by the end of the day retreat go home with some practical ways of reducing stress and feeling more at peace with ourselves.
This day retreat is especially suitable for those new to meditation.
