Orpheus in the Buddha Realm | Explorations

20 – 27 June | LED BY Vidyaruchi, Akasadeva, Manidhara + Ratnadhya

Many people within Triratna not only love classical music but play instruments themselves. On this unique retreat they will have the chance to meet, share inspiration, explore the relationship between music and Dharma practice, play and listen to music together, and perhaps even perform in a small concert. Open to anyone involved in Triratna at any level, who plays classical music to any standard.

Reception is from 4pm on the day of arrival, with the retreat beginning with supper at 6pm.

While you’re here you will be participating in communal life. This includes meditating with everyone on site in the main shrine room in the morning, taking part in daily tasks and at the end of your retreat you will help us to prepare the retreat centre for the next group to join us.

With this in mind, the retreat will finish after the clear-up, so if travelling on public transport, please book a train after 11am.

For: Anyone who has learnt Triratna meditation

Explorations retreats examine cultural influences on Sangharakshita’s teachings, including the connections between Dharma and science, and the experience of egolessness expressed in literature and art.
