The focus of the retreat is to unburden ourselves from
mental habits that cause unnecessary suffering and to realize our natural state,
which is the inner dimension of peace, joy, and love. Anam Thubten invites
everyone to experience this spiritual transformation through meditation
practice and the timeless teachings of the Buddha.
Please try to arrive by 9:45 a.m. to register and settle
in. Bring a mug, bag lunch and your personal cushion setup if you have one.
Chairs and cushions will be available at the retreat, as well as tea and hot
water.
Anam Thubten grew up in Tibet and at an early age began
to practice in the Nyingma tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. Among his many
teachers, his most formative guides were Lama Tsurlo, Khenpo Chopel, and Lama
Garwang. He is the founder and spiritual advisor of Dharmata Foundation,
teaching widely in the U.S. and abroad. He is also the author of various
articles and books in both the Tibetan and English language.
