PROFOUND SIMPLICITY with Richard John
A Weekend of Deep Meditation (in-person)
October 12-13: 9:00am to 5:30pm each day
"Shamatha and Vipashyana alone are the iron hook that will lead you to liberation."
-- Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche
This weekend retreat is open to all practitioners who are committed to the path of meditation, whether you are new to meditation or an experienced vajrayana practitioner. Our practice will be guided by pith instructions of great lineage masters, including Jamgön Kongtrul the Great, Suzuki Roshi, and Chögyam Trungpa.
