Friday 12th – Sunday 14th January, 2024
** CLICK HERE TO BOOK YOUR PLACE **
Start your 2024 with a positive mind.
The world seems to be out of control, full of problems, hatred, anger and suffering.
Everyone has the wish to be free from all suffering and problems permanently. We want freedom from physical and mental pain. But we lack the methods to accomplish this.
Normally we try to do this using external methods, but no matter how sucessful we are from a worldly point of view – no matter how materally wealthy, powerful or highly respected we become – we will never find permanent freedom from suffering and problems.
In reality the world peace we all crave can only come from peaceful minds.
In this retreat we will follow the Sutra of the Four Noble Truths. In this Sutra Buddha taught the source of our suffering and inner paths to inner freedom.
The Location
This will be a wonderful and extraordinary weekend, located in the beautiful setting of Corrymeela, on the edge of the Atlantic coast. Your meditation room overlooks the Atlantic ocean and Rathlin Island and the occasional passing school of dolphins. There is ample opportunity between sessions to relax and walk, soaking up this ancient and extraordinary landscape.
