The Joy of Living - Level 3 - Awakening Wisdom

With a calm mind and open heart, we can look more deeply into the causes of suffering and dissatisfaction. Insight meditation allows us to explore our experience from within. By bringing our unconscious beliefs and patterns into the light of awareness, we can see how our rigid ideas often blind us to the richness of our true nature. Eventually, we will taste a sense of freedom, well being, and confidence that is rooted awareness itself and available to us each and every moment.

The schedule for this weekend workshop includes DVD teachings by Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, presentations on the key points of meditation practice by Tergar instructor, and Buddhist Center founder Tim Olmsted, as well as guided meditations and discussion.

This retreat is open to meditators who have previously attended Joy of Living Level I retreat and practiced meditation regularly for twelve months and also to those who have practiced meditation regularly for at least three years.
