The Way of the Bodhisattva Retreat
“The Way of the Bodhisattva” Retreat. In-person and On-line Attendance
“If I have any understanding of compassion and the practice of the Bodhisattva path, it is entirely on the basis of this text that I possess it.” — H.H. The Dalai Lama.
This week-long retreat, offered by Rev. Master Meian, will focus on the classic text by the Indian scholar monk Shantideva. Written in the 8thcentury CE, he gives us clear, down-to-earth teaching on how to nourish the heart of compassion and thereby find true wisdom for the benefit of all beings including ourselves, something that is sorely needed in our present day. Rev. Master Meian will offer Dharma talks and discussions as well as private spiritual counseling for each participant. This retreat is open to those with some experience of Soto Zen meditation and practice.
