Welcoming the Beyond
 
What is beyond the ordinary mind? What is beyond thought? How can we access a ‎consciousness that is open, free and limitless? How can we dive into the ocean instead of ‎being tossed by the waves?‎
The dharma is in its essence a spiritual journey and the character of the path is to meet, ‎engage with, and then let go of the forms, habits, and functional mind that we are attached ‎to, and explore what opens up for us. Right View, the first and main aspect of the Eightfold ‎Path, asks us to view life without filters. This is not an individual subjective point of view, but ‎a universal point of view. Our practice can continually take us to a place of non-dual ‎awareness. In this weekend retreat we will use forms of meditation, as well as exercises, to ‎help us to touch a deeper invisible being, and give us a hint of the beyond.
