AWAKE AWARE FREE
Introduction to Meditation
A Retreat with Mala Sikka & Terry Hagan
“I found such nectar-like truth, profoundly peaceful, luminous, uncontrived, a brilliant natural simplicity free from elaboration . . .” Buddha Sakyamuni
This retreat offers a gentle yet profound introduction to the path of awakening. Rooted in traditional core teachings and drawing inspiration from the three great schools of Buddhism, this retreat provides a foundation in meditation, mindfulness, and compassionate awareness as a way to live with greater clarity and freedom.
Over the course of this retreat, we will explore:
Foundational practices – meditation in all four postures siting walking, standing, or lying down, meditation with or without an object, awareness of breath, and reflections on compassion and impermanence
Essential teachings – the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path.
Guided meditations and Dharma talks – making the teachings accessible for both beginners and experienced practitioners
One-on-one interviews – time to ask questions and receive personal guidance.
This retreat will offer conditions helpful to deepen awareness and inner stillness
This is a practice-based retreat, balancing meditation with teaching and guidance. Participants will learn how to begin or strengthen a meditation practice and how to integrate this into daily life.
Whether you are new to Buddhism or wish to reconnect with its foundational teachings, this retreat is an invitation to experience for yourself what it means to be awake, aware, and free.
