Island of Self

Dear Friends,
Beste Vrienden,
 
Last week we practised coming home to ourselves, being at home at our selves.
While recognising our roots and drawing nourishment and strength from our roots.
Like a tree digs its roots in healthy soil and becomes firm.
 
This week we focus on the place in ourselves where we feel safe, at ease and at home.
Thich Nhat Hanh calls this place "The Island of Self"
This is the place that is unmistakably yours.
The place where you can relax and heal.
It is accessable anytime, instantly because It is who you are.
It is so liberating to be who you are,
like Thay jokingly said: "If a tree wants to be something else than a tree, we would be in trouble"
 
Leo will lead the meditation and doors will be open at 19h30 for settling down and tea.
Guided sitting will start at 20h
followed by :
Silent walking and silent sitting.
As usual we will close with Dharma sharing.
Afterwards we will have social tea.
 
Have a wounderfull weekend,
Enjoy!

Hans
