The Inner Landscape: A Meditation Retreat in Nature
Live Retreat at Ratna Ling Retreat Center
With Maria Helena Kubrusly
Friday October 23, 6:30 pm – Sunday October 25, 10 am
Explore your inner landscape by immersing yourself in Nature.
While many of us spend time in offices, houses, cities, and busy streets, we can’t always connect with our true Nature. What can Nature teach you about yourself? When we go outside, we can observe the elements of earth, water, fire, air, and space. We can feel the groundedness of the tree or the rock, the fluidity of the ocean, the force and heat of fire, the wispiness of the wind, and the boundlessness of space. We contact our true inner being of peace by connecting with Nature.
