Postponed: Cultivating Three Key Elements of Practice – Mindfulness, Investigation and Energy
 
with Walt Opie
 
Due to unforeseen circumstances, the weekend event is postponed.
 

 
One prominent teaching in Buddhism, the Seven Factors of Awakening, starts with three key elements of meditation practice that are extremely important to cultivate: mindfulness, investigation and energy.

Mindfulness has a monitoring aspect, where we are constantly paying attention through the senses and responding accordingly. Investigation allows us to bring wisdom to the situation and make sure we see the broader perspective. Meanwhile, it takes consistent effort or energy to stay mindful through both easeful experiences and the more difficult or challenging moments. So these three factors are vital both on and off the cushion.

During this half day retreat, we will meditate together and explore ways to better understand how to strengthen and deepen these three critical elements of practice that lead us onwards on the path. This event will include guided meditations, dharma talks, and discussion. Appropriate for beginners and more experienced meditators.
