The Hearts Longing for Freedom: A residential Weekend Retreat
Discovering meaning with a community of practicing Buddhists
Many of us have realised a need to seek something deeper in this life, sensing that there is a greater meaning and wholeness available to us. At Sudarshanaloka, and other Triratna Buddhist centres worldwide, we embark on this search with the companionship of a whole community of fellow seekers, and with the guiding framework of the time-tested teachings of the Buddha. We reckon it works pretty well.
On this weekend retreat, we will be exploring what it really means to ‘Go for Refuge’- to take on the support and guidance of Buddhist ideals, teachings and practitioners as we walk that challenging road to wholeness - to freedom.
The programme, perfect for those new to Triratna or interested in deepening their sense of it, will include teachings, discussions, meditation and communal rituals and activities. There will also be time to contemplate and commune in our exquisite native surroundings. Refreshing river pools beckon!
