Cultivating Wisdom and the Open Heart. With Donald Rothberg, Zohar Lavie, and Yahel Avigur.
Weeklong retreat (Ein Dor).
In this retreat, on the foundation of insight meditation and the development of mindfulness and wisdom, we will learn the formal practices of lovingkindness, compassion, joy, and equanimity, and offer guidance for bringing these practices into daily life.
All of these practices strengthen clear seeing and wisdom, self-confidence, self-acceptance, generosity of spirit, and steadiness of mind and heart, revealing our fundamental kindness and wisdom, in a culture in which heart and mind are often disconnected.
The retreat will be held in the context of silence, alternating sitting meditation and walking meditation. Core instructions in the different practices will be offered, along with talks, discussion, and brief daily guided movement sessions.
The retreat will take place in English and Hebrew - translation is available.
