Non duality is a translation of the word Advaita, meaning non-dual, "not two" or even oneness. This oneness is the fundamental nature of everything. Everything is a part of and made of one nondual essence.
Some people wonder where mindfulness leads, or what is the point of it. Well, we could say the point is mindfulness itself but also we can say that mindfulness is practised in order to wake up to who you really are and to see life as it really is and to end your suffering.
This retreat will guide you to explore your own immediate experience to discover the truth of who you really are and what is really going on, not what you THINK/BELIEVE is going on. It is a radical approach.
Created by Suryacitta from his 30+ years of experience, the retreat draws on Buddhism, Advaita Vedanta (non duality), Zen, contemporary teachings and anything else he believes will help us to wake up.
During the sessions there will be meditations, pointers (exercises), contemplations, silence, voice dialogue and time for discussion.
Is it for me?
Many people who attend this course either resonate with the message and/or have been practicing meditation or mindfulness and are beginning to wonder where it leads. The course is for you if you are willing to be challenged about who you are and what life is.
We suggest a minimum of two years meditation experience; if you are not sure if this retreat is for you, please feel free to get in touch to discuss.
