Peace is the universal wish in this world.
The Peace we seek is an inner state of mind. When we develop this inner peace, outer peace be possible. As we cultivate inner peace we learn to live in harmony with ourself and others.
In this retreat we will follow a series of step by step profound meditations from the great Buddhist meditation master, Langri Tangpa.
These powerful meditations awaken our potential for loving kindness, compassion, and wisdom. They also teach us how we can transform lifes’ difficulties into powerful spiritual insights and in a way that enables us to remain calm and positive in the face of everyday adversity.
There will be an introductory session followed by six sessions through which we can gain meditative experience in order to familiarize ourself with our actual nature, which is compassion.
This retreat is perfect for beginners or those familiar with meditation. Each session will include commentary to a verse and guided meditation to gain our own experience with that verse as it relates to our own life.
Your retreat guide Ian McGlade, shares the meditation techniques and practices he himself has found so transformative, in a down to earth, humorous and accessible way. With many years of practice and teaching experience you are in safe hands to help you begin, reinvigorate or continue your meditation journey.
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 Raithlin 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.
