THE 2024 SANGHA RETREAT: Day 2 + 3

THE 2024 SANGHA RETREAT: Day 2 + 3

Day 2 – KNOWING THE MIND

 

Day 2 - The mind. Becoming aware of its design, function, and structure. Today was about the lower levels of the mind and how it operates and can often dominate. Through meditation, we are able to be with this level of mind in a more objective way.

Through hikes through nature, the mind let's go. The mind moves from subjective to objective.


And with the mind now known for what it is and how it operates, we can let that go and be with people in a way that allows our deepest humanity to surface.

Day 3 - THE POWER OF ELDERS
