You are invited to join an urban retreat we will be hosting from Saturday 9th to Saturday 16th November. The “urban retreat” is a week of online talks, teachings, guided meditations, and other resources, delivered to your inbox every day by email. And it’s all free!
The theme will be: “Blazing Like the Sun” and we’ll explore how our hearts can be more overflowing with kindness, compassion, confidence, and love of life. We’ll explore how to find the “freedom of heart” that is loving-kindness.
Each day we will email you material to help you engage with the practice of lovingkindness, and to incorporate it into your daily life. If you can’t practice daily, just join in when you can.
To participate, sign up using the form below to receive the free daily email from Bodhipaksa. The emails will contain readings, links to guided meditations and other information. We have also scheduled three Google Plus video Hangouts where you can join us for a live guided meditation. These are on Saturday, November 9th at 11 am US Eastern time (click on the links to add the events to your calendar in your local time), Tuesday, November 12th at 2 pm, and Saturday, November 16th at 10 am. Or check out timeanddate.com, converting from “USA – New Hampshire – Concord” to your location.
