Meditation Retreat in Mineral Wells, Texas
Once or twice a year, Kadampa Meditation Center Texas offers an Away Retreat. This is a retreat away from the city (Dallas/Fort Worth). The last retreat was on entitled “Tranquil Abiding” in Mineral Wells. It was an extraordinary retreat . The object of our meditation was the mind itself. The peace that comes from this form of meditation is unbelievable. After focusing for awhile on the clear and pure essential nature of the mind a vast space of consciousness opens up. All thoughts gradually dissolve into the mind and the clarity and power of the mind is revealed.Even people who were new to meditation were having extraordinary meditations.
The next Away Retreat is in October and it will be focused on the Perfection of Wisdom based on Geshe Kelsang’s teachings after he granted the empowerment of Prajnapamita in Paris last year. It’s going to be another extraordinary retreat so I’m looking forward to it already. It’s so much easier to meditate on retreat free from all the normal busyness of work and such.
