UPCOMING RETREAT

Practicing Deep Listening and Loving Speech

The art of deep listening and loving speech needs to be practiced every day if we want to develop true communication. By establishing deep listening and loving speech within ourselves, we foster deep communication with others and cultivate love and compassion in the world. This practice has the capacity to establish peace in ourselves and hence in the world.

Practicing True Love:

Nourishing and Healing Ourselves and the World


Meditation is to have the time to sit down and to look deeply and when you look deeply, you begin to understand. The moment you understand, compassion is born in your heart. And now it is possible for you to forgive …not before that.
