4D3N Weekend Silent Meditation Retreat at Vejjasala (a place of Healing)

Meditation may be a solitary practice at heart, but the resonance effect of doing it in groups makes the meditation more profound personally and socially.

This 3-night meditation retreat allows practitioners to settle into stillness and quiet. The retreat becomes a container and supportive environment to go deeper into meditation than is typically possible with the busyness and complexities of daily life.

This is a student-centered retreat, which means that there is no set curriculum to follow, rather each student will continue their own meditation practice and all talks and interviews will be responsive to students' needs and interests.

Retreat Schedule

The schedule will mostly alternate between seated and walking meditation. Each day there will be a dharma talk, a 1:1 interview with the teacher, three meals, and time for exercise or walking outside.

We will observe noble silence from Thursday night until Sunday noon. This means only speaking when it is necessary and avoiding eye contact (except with the teacher or the retreat manager). Retreatants will be asked to completely refrain from communication devices (there will be an emergency contact if someone needs to reach you).

Cost : $320 (member), $400 (non-member), 4 days food, accommodation & teachings.: FREE or by donation
