This retreat will be focused on practice of the fundamental meditation techniques of Shamata (calm abiding) and Vipassana (insight) meditation.
Thru shamata you will learn a number of simple techniques to gradually bring the mind to rest on a single object. This prepares the mind for deity practices and brings a host of benefits to daily life.
Khenpo will also explain how to use traditional techniques of Vipassana, analysis and investigation to come to understand and directly experience the fundamental nature of mind and phenomena.
These teachings will be based on the book Stages of Meditation
