Human beings appear to be the only species that are conscious of our mortality. Yet most people purposefully ignore this fact of our existence\, preferring to put effort\, thoughts and practice on “more pleasant things”. We yearn to “wake up”\, to let go of our endless attachments and experience contentment and ease in our lives. Paradoxically\, facing the death of our loved ones and ourselves\, is one of the classic Buddhist teachings for accepting the truth of existence and waking up to impermanence. It is also a teaching that can greatly reduce and perhaps even eliminate the biggest delusion of all… that everyone else will die\, except me. By avoiding the reality of our own deaths\, we deny ourselves the life-affirming lessons that acceptance of death provides… that life CAN BE lived joyfully and with gratitude.Bring a lunch and plan on staying the entire day. \n\n\n\n\nThis daylong may not be suitable for those with anxiety\, trauma or those who have recently experienced the death of a loved one. \n\n\n\n\nSummary of Important Dates\n\n\n\n\n09/12/2024 – Registration opens.\n\n\n\n10/26/2024 – Attend and enjoy the wonderful retreat.\n\n\n\n10/26/2024 – For registration after the retreat\, send a message to the registrar to arrange payment.\n\n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nSelect one of the following registration “ATTEND” buttons to indicate if you’ll be attending via Zoom or in-person. The fee is $25.00 per person due before the start of the event.
