Big Sky Mind: Guided Silent Meditation Retreat in Evergreen

Mahamudra meditation, rooted in the rich tradition of Buddhism, offers a journey toward profound insight and inner peace; and can be practiced by anyone. The benefits of Mahamudra extend far beyond mere relaxation or stress relief; it encompasses a profound shift in perspective, leading to greater wisdom, compassion, and freedom from suffering.

On this retreat we will learn how to unveil and meditate on the clarity, luminosity, and natural purity of our own mind, coming to rest in a deeply peaceful state of awareness. By discovering that there is far more space inside us than outside, we see our usual problems in perspective – a skill which can then permeate every aspect of our lives.

The day includes snacks and coffee, and time to walk in the beautiful surroundings.

Engaging in a silent retreat can be immensely relaxing. Here are some other benefits:

• It deepens our mindfulness and ability to stay in the moment.
• It reduces distractions and enhances concentration.
• It offers the space for introspection and reflection.
• It fosters a sense of connection and belonging.
• It connects us to a lineage of wisdom teachings and spiritual practice that spans centuries.
