SUMMARY:Daylong Retreat with Visiting Senior Teacher\, Steve Armstrong
DESCRIPTION:Awareness\, Insight and Liberation\nDaylong Retreat with Visiting Senior Teacher\, Steve Armstrong\n \nThe day will focus on integrating the mindfulness meditation instructions of Mahāsi Sayadaw with the practical mindful awareness guidance of Sayadaw U Tejaniya. This event is suitable for both new and experienced meditators. People of all walks of life are warmly welcome. \nSteve will offer a clear path for developing clarity of awareness with each arising moment. This leads to stability of mind and the insightful knowledge of liberation. Such knowledge weakens deeply conditioned habits of mind that cause unhappiness\, and strengthens conditions for an enduring sense of well-being. \nPlease plan to bring a lunch so there’s no need to leave the SDC building while at the retreat. \n\nRetreat Flyer (.PDF)\n\nSteve Armstrong has studied the dhamma and practiced insight meditation since 1975. He served for years at the Insight Meditation Society in Barre\, Massachusetts as Executive Director\, Board member and a senior teacher of the annual three-month retreat. As a monk in Burma for 5 years\, he undertook the intensive\, silent practice of insight and lovingkindness meditations under the guidance of Sayadaw U Pandita\, as well as studying the abhidhamma with Sayadaw U Zagara of Australia. He continues his practice under the guidance of Sayadaw U Tejaniya in Rangoon. \nHe has been leading meditation retreats internationally since 1990 and is a co-founding director and teacher of the Vipassana Metta Foundation dhamma sanctuary on Maui. He was the Managing Editor of the translation committee that in 2016 brought to publication the much anticipated Manual of Insight by Mahasi Sayadaw\, previously unavailable to the international meditation community in English. \nRegistration Details\nThose who register and attend this one day retreat will receive an initial priority registration opportunity for the 2018 SIM residential retreat with Steve in a forest retreat center near Foresthill (September 7 to 14.)
