Omega welcomes back Pema Chödrön, one of the preeminent Tibetan Buddhist teachers of our time, in her only teaching appearance in the United States in 2006. This retreat is based on her new book, No Time to Lose: A Timely Guide to the Way of the Bodhisattva, which focuses on 8th-century Buddhist teachings that guide her own life today and that are profoundly relevant for all of us.
"We live in challenging times," she says. "Many of us are seeking ways to respond with compassion and equanimity to what is happening. To do so means working gently yet precisely with our emotions and our state of mind."
In this weekend retreat, Pema Chödrön provides guidance for doing just this. The format includes meditation practice, talks, and question-and-answer sessions. In addition, we work with silence for the first day of the retreat. The retreat is suited for those new to meditation, as well as those who have been practicing for years.
