Full Day Buddhist Meditation Retreat

This full day meditation retreat will be an opportunity for experienced meditators to connect to nature, to our animal brethren, and to other Buddhist practitioners at the site of the Rivendell Farmed Animal Sanctuary. We will explore the theme of "practicing the Dharma during difficult times" and there will be a Dharma discussion during the retreat. A reading selection will be emailed to participants prior to the retreat, which will serve as a a focal point for the discussion. There will be seated, walking, and work meditation periods, as well as rest and reflection time. Participants are encouraged to foster a state of quiet through the day. There will be opportunities to socialize at the final meal. Rivendell is a 501c3 charity, that is the forever home to farmed animals in need. The event is being held at no charge, but donations to the sanctuary are very much appreciated. …
