He has a world-class mind and uses it to elucidate fine and complex points of meditation practice in an accessible, folksy way. Also, he is unfailingly kind, which, for me, is indispensable in a Dharma teacher.- Blake Shields AbramovitzHar-Prakash’s teaching is clearer and more comprehensive than any I’ve encountered, and he was available to offer support and guidance whenever I reached out. It feels like I’ve received a year’s worth of practice experience at this retreat. It’s been a rare and unique container that’s allowed me to challenge myself skillfully and encouraged support and self-care. I’m leaving with new insights, resources, community connections, and a newfound inspiration to carry forward into my practice.- Jonathan AndersonWorking with Har-Prakash at this retreat enabled me to challenge my unconscious fears, tears and terrors with new skills. I am experiencing more freedom and confidence since. Har-Prakash’s down-to- earth teaching and his ability to show his own vulnerability were essential to the refreshing environment he helped to create. His knowledge base in the dharma blends well with his additional deep learning of who we are as whole beings in the world. I highly recommend working with Har-Prakash if you are able.- Paddy KamenHar-Prakash’s array of resources- so accessibly taught, repeated, and reinforced - felt very empowering and made me want to roll up my sleeves and practice. I appreciated the ample opportunities for private interviews, his approach of integrating the psychological with the spiritual, as well as his humor and vulnerability in sharing his own challenges. I also appreciated his emphasis on working in a spirit of self-compassion through easing up or bearing down in meditation. I leave the retreat rededicated to practice with renewed joy and gratitude in the teachings, practice, and sangha.- Anna TaneburgoHar-Prakash’s retreat program was sharp, concise, broad, and deep—a guide not just to meditation but also to living a wholesome and admirable life.- Jesse PepperAs teachers go, Har-Prakash is as good as it gets. I felt understood—like there was nothing I could experience that he wouldn’t be able to support me with. He integrates psychological and relational insight into the curriculum, which I found to be a useful counterbalance to my exploration of the spiritual depths. I’ve come away with a deeper understanding of emptiness, and a looser and more flexible relationship with practice (go figure!). His depth of experience, creativity, psychological insight, and warmth make him a truly unique and valuable teacher. I’m very much looking forward to working with Har-Prakash in the future.- Jason Ryterband During this retreat, I needed support in navigating a range of challenges that left me feeling dysregulated, dissociated, and cognitively impaired. Har-Prakash’s encouragement, guidance, and gentle patience helped me navigate these challenges effectively while broadening my perspective. Through his support, I’ve integrated effective self-care and restorative practices into my daily routine, which has been transformative. Intensive retreats can be incredibly demanding! But for me, there’s always a profound sense of safety and trust when Har-Prakash is there. His expertise and ability to support students through a wide range of challenging conditions create a safety net that few teachers can provide. If you’re looking to do deep, boundary-pushing work, Har-Prakash is the teacher you want by your side, as his skills and presence are unparalleled. - John Bruder - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/cochise/one-week-cultivating-the-jewel-of-mindfulness-retreat-w-har-prakash-khalsa/100001980116394439 - **Event Categories**: health-wellness, meditation, workshops, contests, meetups, art, literary-art, yoga, spiritual, dog - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 1 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 956.88, max: 1517.09, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Cochise - **state**: AZ - **country**: United States - **location**: Dharma Treasure Retreat Center at Cochise Stronghold - **lat**: 31.9247578 - **long**: -109.9622698 - **full address**: Dharma Treasure Retreat Center at Cochise Stronghold, 2126 W.
