Retreat Theme: Uncertainty, Confusion, Disappointment, Doubt
Why does our progress in practice, and the use of practice in everyday life, seem to stall and lose its value or power?
Why do we seem to have significant practice Insights and break throughs, large and small, but are unable to integrate them into the way we living?
Why can some teachings or practice methods seem so clear and meaningful, but seem to prove ineffective in our regular practice and life?
These common experiences frequently result in uncertainty, confusion, disappointment, and doubt. They can easily turn into obstacles to practice if not worked with skillfully.
This one-day retreat will involve a relaxed exploration of these important questions and potentially troubling states of mind. Participants will explore a number of recommendations for working more skillfully with them.
The day will be appropriate for all levels of experience. Please bring a pen/pencil and paper and your own lunch. Plan on staying on-site at the Sacramento Dharma Center all fay during the retreat.
