The monthly Zen meditation retreat at Lambda Zen Temple is a three day meditation retreat, where we reexamine the true self through a very simple hermitagelike life-style. The retreat starts monthly every third Friday at 10am (10:00) and ends Sunday at 3pm (15:00). Everyone concentrates her consciousness on the given task while working. To work is to cleanse the mind. Work is an opportunity to meditate and become awakened to the real self. A small event in daily life can become an important moment of awareness for one who is in great darkness. Only through your determined and thorough examination of body and mind, worth and harmony can be formed. *SCHEDULE* Friday 10:00 Sitting Meditation 12:30: Lunch, then informal tea 14:00 Module 18:30 Dinner 19:15 Sitting Meditation 23:00 Lights Out Saturday 4:00 Sitting Meditation 5:45 Breakfast 6:30 Walking Meditation, full day hike ~18:00 Dinner 1h Break ~19:15 Sitting Meditation 22:00 Lights Out Sunday 6:30 Sitting Meditation 8:00 Breakfast Working Meditation Lunch 30min Break Cleanup and Packing 14:00 Sitting Meditation 15:00 End of retreat Module (not freely selectable): Meditation, Working, Cooking, Hiking, Gardening, etc. The schedule can vary. *Etiquette* We eat what will be served and are grateful. The Zen temple etiquette gives a framework to consciously carry out and process your own words and actions. *Meditation* Life and death are the great matter. Be watchful of your time. All is impermanent and passes swiftly away. Time waits for no one. *READ BEFORE YOUR RSVP* Study the introductory information, especially the daily schedule, the etiquette and the Q&A. Make sure to understand and accept them. Please find the introductory information here: https://zen-temple.net/zen-meditation-retreat/

**One last run. Make it Ischgl.** Ischgl has a reputation. Most of it is true – and if you've never been, this is the trip to find out why. The Frankfurt Ski Club is heading there for the season closing with a handful of spots still open. We're staying at Hotel Persura, right in the village center, steps from the Silvrettabahn and Ischgl's legendary après-ski strip. That means the transition from last run to first beer is measured in minutes, not logistics. Paznauner Taja gets you started on the mountain. Kuhstall and Trofana Alm take it from there. During the day: 200+ km of spring pistes, and the skipass includes the Top of the Mountain closing concert with Ben Zucker at 2,300m. After the lifts close: Ischgl does the rest. 📅 Fri 17 – Mon 20 April 🏨 Hotel Persura \(B&B\, ski\-to\-door\, village center\) 🚌 Bus from Frankfurt included 💶 Sign\-up: €580 \| Single supp\.: €75 📩 [tc20.ischgl@fscev.org ](mailto:tc20.ischgl@fscev.org)\| [fscev.org/trips/ischgl-20](fscev.org/trips/ischgl-20) **FSC membership required – details on the website.**
