About This Hybrid Retreat

  • The teacher will present remotely via Zoom. Participants may attend this Hybrid event via Zoom or in-person at the Dharma Center.
  • Pre-registration is required and we recommend you pay the registration fee in advance using the registration ATTEND buttons shown below. Since your registration choice indicates if you’ll be attending via Zoom or in-person, registering early helps us determine how many people the meditation room should accommodate.
  • After you’ve registered you may later offer a donation in gratitude of the teacher. To offer teacher dana, visit https://sactoinsight.org/retreat-dana-online/.

Recognizing and Understanding the 3 Characteristics
The emphasis of this daylong will be on exploring through our meditation, reflections, and question and response periods the 3 characteristics of experience. The 3 characteristics of impermanence, unreliability, and the not self nature of all phenomena are at the core of what we practice with in our insight meditation. The implications for deepening our experiential understanding of these 3 interconnected dimensions of our lives will be emphasized as well.
