The Presence of Life and Love

A 5 day retreat with conversations and reflections about who we are.

We appear as human beings to live in our own and very personal experience of separation with its magnificent stories which fight for our egos desire to be right.  And sometimes we have others to collude with us in this fascinating game. What fun and entertainment because it's all about 'us'!  Our minds are about searching for meaning, purpose and understanding.  And in that search for 'something'  (bigger house, more passes in exams, healing my relationships, getting a new gadget, enlightenment) while there is nothing wrong in wanting 'this', we will always feel like something is missing or lacking.  That 'something' is actually nothing in particular and nothing special and it has always remained with us whether we have known it or not. It lies beneath our beliefs about the world we think we know and is the only unchanging invitation to joy and wonder beyond our 'selves'.
