🥰Hello everyone, my name is Lobsang Yeshema and I will accompany you for this retreat!

🥰We will serve drinks and snacks. No meals or accommodation included.

For the 1 day of the program, the schedule is the same : 2 sessions in the morning, 2 sessions in the afternoon, from 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM, including breaks and time for lunch. Each session lasts about 1h15, including teachings, meditation and time for questions.

The teachings are following the same tradition as H.H. Dalaï-Lama on how to attain calm-abiding mind according to Buddhist philosophy teachings. ​ It is well known that the primary purpose of the Buddha's teaching is to attain happiness of enlightenment by practicing two forms of meditation : concentration meditation and analytical meditation. The first aims at achieving calm-abiding (samatha), while the second aims to gaining special insight (vipashyana).

Our calm-abiding meditation sessions are meant for beginners as well as for more advanced meditators. Although our groups are mostly made up of first-time meditators, there are also those who have already practiced meditation and are seeking another technique. There are as well those who wish to take the course for the second or third time in order to improve their meditative skills. In this retreat are given all the fundamental elements necessary to attain calm-abiding according to Buddha's teachings : the preparations, the posture, the necessary conditions, the hindrances and how to overcome them, etc.

This Urban Retreat is without accomodation and doesn't include food. We will have coffee, tea and snacks for the breaks.

Spots are limited, so book early to guarantee yours. We will take approximatively 1 hour 30 for lunch time. You can bring your lunch if you want as we have a small kitchen here.

The contribution for the retreat: 48$
Because we limit the number of the participants so we will not be able to make refunds if you like to cancel only 10 days before the event.
