Saturday Shamatha retreat

June 18, 2022 @ 9:30 am - 2:00 pm

Saturday, June 18, 2022

9:30 AM to 11:30 AM and 12:00 Noon to 2:00 PM

In person at KTC, 645 W. Rich St., Columbus, OH, and via Zoom
with Lama Tom Broadwater & Meditation Instructor Chuck Drake
Registration preferred

Practicing Mindfulness Meditation is an eye-opener for many of us; after learning how to practice basic quiet sitting meditation (called Shamatha in Sanskrit), we discover our unseen thoughts and motivations and feel inspired to make changes in our lives.

This one-day retreat will give us a chance to focus on Dharma practice and deepen our connection to the basic sanity and goodness of sitting meditation.

KTC Meditation Instructor Chuck Drake will lead meditation sessions, and Lama Tom Broadwater will be available for meditation instruction interviews, to help participants make a strong connection with their practice.

The program will be offered both in-person at the KTC and via Zoom to our at-home Zoom audience and distance sangha.

Those attending in person should bring a vegetarian sack lunch. Water, coffee and tea will be provided.

To promote a mindful atmosphere, Functional Talking (for necessary things) will be observed.

ABOUT TICKETS: Our Columbus KTC Facebook event listing for this event says tickets are free, but we would appreciate a donation to benefit Columbus KTC’s rebuilding fund during this time.

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE financial means, or have difficulty registering online, please write lamakathy@columbusktc.org and she will register you at no cost.
