Description: |
Silence Is Golden Retreat 2016 Meditation Spirituality at Dipamkara Meditation Center in Huntington, Suffolk County, Long Island, New York.
Have you ever wondered what it would be like not to talk and just be silent for a period of time? Don't think it's possible? Challenge yourself to discover the real freedom to be found in a calm and quiet mind. Escape the busyness of daily life and experience a short meditation retreat where everyone observes the practice of silence for a day in order to enhance focus and insight and to gain a deep level of relaxation.
In our busy daily experiences we can often become disconnected or closed towards others in our life and feel isolated and lonely even when we are surrounded by people. Take time to reconnect to your heart and to heal your relationships through the quiet of meditation. This is a wonderful way to prepare for upcoming holiday time with family and friends.
This is an introductory silent retreat. The day will include an introduction to meditation and silent retreat, three guided meditation sessions, and a conclusion and discussion at the end. For this retreat, you must plan to attend for the whole day. For more information, contact us at info@meditationonlongisland.org. Please let us know if you will be attending so we can prepare food, cushions for the day.
Dipamkara Meditation Center (DMC)
Long Island Center For Kadampa Buddhism
Dipamkara Meditation Center is located on the beautiful North Shore of Long Island, NY. It is a non-profit, volunteer-based organization offering weekly drop-in classes, beginner meditation classes, day courses, classes for children and families, day and weekend retreats and in-depth study programs.
In our effort to help more and more people find inner peace and a meaningful life we are continuously working to expand our programs throughout the Long Island area and welcome your requests.
Dipamkara Meditation Center offers general program classes (classes open to everyone) that usually begin with a guided meditation. The meditation is followed by a 40 minute teaching on an aspect of the series topic for that month. After the teaching there is usually another brief guided meditation as well as a question and answer period. You don't need to have experience in meditation or Buddhism to attend classes. All you need is the wish to improve yourself and the quality of your life. |
