In-Person: Growing the Heart of Practice: A Happy Fundraiser for Mountain Stream
Join us for a special half-day retreat with esteemed Dharma teacher Gil Fronsdal, in conversation with our founding teacher John Travis. This gathering is a rare opportunity to practice with two deeply rooted elders of the Insight tradition, whose decades-long friendship has helped shape the Dharma in our region.
The morning will include a period of silent meditation, a Dharma talk from Gil exploring early Pali Canon teachings on bhāvanā (cultivation), the arc of growth on the path, and the liberating process of shedding rather than accumulating. We’ll conclude with a conversation and Q&A between Gil and John on the unfolding of practice over time.
This event is a fundraiser for Mountain Stream Meditation. As a small, community-supported sangha, Mountain Stream relies on the generosity of practitioners like you to sustain our offerings and keep the Dharma alive and accessible for all. Your donations will directly support the ongoing work of our sangha.
There is no set fee, but registration is required.
PLEASE REGISTER ASAP to reserve your seat.
This retreat will be offered both in-person (limited space) and virtually via Zoom.
Please plan to arrive by 8:45 am to settle in. Chairs and cushions provided.
Thank you for supporting this community of practice and the gift of the Dharma.
