2 WEEK RETREAT with LEANDER KANE
7th March/ 21st March at Wangapeka Study and Retreat Center
MINDFULNESS MATTERS
Cultivating a meaningful peace
Our bodies hold the key to deep healing (transformation).
We will explore using particular, precise, gentle movement sequences largely carried out while lying on the floor; then noticing in detail all body /mind states while resting in the experience. In particular the states that make us feel whole (wholesome). The recognising and resting in the wholesome allows for deeper understanding (insight) to arise.
Feelings of settledness, groundedness, centeredness, vibrancy, spaciousness, openness, clarity, joy, gracefulness and an overall feeling of wellbeing can be experienced, allowing us to taste of union (self and other not separate).
We will work with the SIX PARAMI (activities essential for awakening). The Parami or 6 perfections are Generosity (the gift of interest), Morality (the developing of wholesome relationship with all of life), Patience (the ability to be quietly present during difficulties), Energy (enthusiastic perseverance), Concentration (centeredness), Wisdom (the merging of all duality; the understanding of the interconnectedness of all phenomena)
This simple, direct, mindful way allows us to open to a richer more inclusive appreciation of all of life within and around us. A vast expansive knowing/becoming way beyond our self limiting beliefs.
