Abiding as the Natural State Retreat
"There's a certain point where you give up absolutely every technique you have ever received and just come back experientially and rest deeply and be filled and renewed and informed from the direct experience of your own nature. To me, that's what meditation is and that's what meditation retreats are all about.” - Sharon Landrith
In primordial silence, the fundamental root, all is well, there's not a thing out of place, it's pure contentment. In fact, contentment doesn't even come close to it. It's whole. There's no need for anything else or anyone else. It is what this life has always been looking for and is the sense of completion.
It is the channel of emptiness, before movement, before sound, before, before, before, before. There's nothing there. And within that, nothing, no-thing, the ground of all potentiality. Everything arises and comes out of that. The silent channel.
Love arises from the deep primordial ground. It's like a mysterious movement of this empty nature that contains everything that is - the well of the womb, of all potentiality. There's nothing that love is not.
This is a silent retreat with Satsang talks, guided meditation, poetry/art/music sharing and question & answer sessions.
