Radiant Mind Insight Meditation Tasmania

There are still a few spots still open in our November retreat and bookings have opened for our March retreat.

Opportunities to step out of business as usual are rare in this day and age. A silent meditation retreat offers exactly that.

Immersive meditation, surrounded by nature, allows the body, heart and mind to deeply rest. A chance to put down the burden of our swirling conceptual mind-scape and just be.

Beautiful words and a path that sees everything we do as an opportunity for the practice of reducing unease, unsatisfactoriness and harm.

The only way we can get beyond the wheel of samsara is to transform our whole life into a Dharma practice.

Our whole life has to become our practice. Everybody we meet is our practice. Everything is teaching us something if we are only open to learning. Then, when our whole life is our practice, we cannot say, "I have no time."

When anger arises it can feel overwhelming and the stories the mind generates seem very real. Anger’s close friends such as shame, righteousness, ill will and resentment can easily join the party and our suffering grows. But if we can bring some mindfulness to the situation, see that the anger is not us, but has arisen through conditions, we can allow compassion to arise (for ourselves and others) and to tend and befriend this difficult emotion, knowing it will pass. Using these beautiful words by Thich Nhat Hahn while connecting to the felt sense of our breath and our body while we walk can help this process.
