Voices of Awakening: An Insight Dialogue Retreat
Also With Ayya Anopama
December 28, 2025 - January 1, 2026
We will explore the path to freedom and the obstacles that hinder us by contemplating the Verses of the Elder Nuns (Therīgāthā), a collection of poems from the very first Buddhist nuns. Together we will explore how we can meet ourselves fully, with compassion, and encounter the challenges in our own lives with patience and perseverance, developing resilience, inspiration and joy on the path.
