Birmingham Sangha Retreat 2024
Mandala of Awakening
With Abhayadhara, Maitrisara and friends
26th July - 2 August 2024
Adhisthana, near Malvern
Open to anyone who's completed an Introductory course at the Centre
About the theme:
The journey to Awakening can be depicted as a mandala - a sacred circle. This mandala gives us an overview of the different areas of spiritual practice we are traversing.
We will spend the retreat looking at the different aspects in turn: integration, positive emotion, spiritual death or insight, spiritual rebirth and receptivity. These five elements combine together to form a complete system of practice distinctive to the Triratna tradition. They can be approached sequentially or simultaneously.
There will be meditation, creative workshops, ritual, discussion groups and presentations.
About the retreat in general:
The retreat will be held at Adhisthana which is Triratna’s international home base. Adhisthana has a great deal of mythic significance for our Movement and is a wonderful place for a retreat.
Being on retreat is a wonderful way to deepen our practice and strengthen the relationships within the sangha and we’d love you to join us. For more details, talk to a member of the Centre team.
