"Through the practice of meditation Wisdom is gained.
Without meditation Wisdom is lost.
Understanding these dual paths of gain and loss,
Would you not choose the path that leads to Wisdom?"
The Buddha

Join Miles Kessler in this online day retreat as he guides you into meditation depth, in the midst of life. This online gathering is your opportunity to deepen your practice from the convenience of your own home via ZOOM video conference.
The day-retreat schedule will consist of alternating periods of sitting and walking meditation, talks on the practice and method of meditation, a Q&A session, and an opportunity to connect with the global sangha with a small group discussion.
This retreat is free of charge, and on the traditional "dana" system. There will be an opportunity to offer a donation following the retreat.
This day retreat will be done online via the Zoom video conference platform.
All talks and group meetings will be on Zoom, so you will need a laptop, tablet, or a smart phone to participate.
To get your day retreat Zoom link you need to register above. All the information will be sent to you upon registration.
This online day retreat is meant to be done at the greatest convenience to yourself, and in the comfort of your own home. However, there are ideal conditions that you should try to create for the retreat. Here are some guidelines:
No. The retreat is designed for a full day participation, and there will be Dharma talks at the beginning, in the middle, and at the end of the retreat. To gain the most benefit it is recommended to attend the whole retreat.
However, this retreat is to be done in your own home, and within the schedule of your own daily life. You are perfectly free to attend as much, or as little of the retreat as you like.
No. This retreat is being offered free of charge. It is open and for the benefit those who wish to establish meditation more in their life.
All the organization and teaching for this retreat is offered voluntarily.
Should you be inspired to support these efforts so more such retreats can happen in the future, then there will be an opportunity to offer a donation following the retreat in the traditional Buddhist system of "dana."
Yes. For those living in North America, the retreat begins in the middle of the night. However, it is fine to "jump in" and join the retreat in the morning North American time, and attend the second half of the retreat.
Right now I do not have an online day retreat scheduled for the North American timezones? However, should there be enough interest I will be happy to create one.
