Kum Nye Retreat
July 4 - 7, 2024
Ratna Ling Retreat Center
2 guests ($950 each) Double occupancy in shared cottage.
The world will be balanced when we are balanced.We participate in infinitely complex and interdependent relationships with all of the many levels of existence., from subatomic to cosmic. Our immediate environment is also related to every other environment on earth, and the earth is influenced by events in the far reaches of the universe.
Every action we take, however small, affects the whole universe, just as every wave affects the shore.
When we acknowledge these interrelationships, we acknowledge the importance of creating harmony within ourselves.
We realize that we have the resources we need to be both, balanced and happy, for our bodies and minds are the vehicles for all our learnings and growth.
In Kum Nye we begin by developing stillness and calmness. (page 8 and 9 of Kum Nye Relaxation by Tarthang Tulku Rinpoche)
Stillness of body and space, calmness of breath and mind.
Through the weekend of extensive Kum Nye practice using Tarthang Tulku three Kum Nye books and following Arnaud Maitland's training we will discover a Stillness and Calmness that is a natural part of our being. Learning to develop and sustain these qualities will be the focus of our seminar.
