Meditation retreat led by Lawrence Edwards, PhD at the Garrison Institute, Garrison, NY.

Every spiritual tradition has its poet saints and mystics who express the ecstatic, love-drenched state of unity consciousness in language and  that propels the mind back to its source, pure Being.  Dissolve the mind and its endless stream of chatter in the ocean of ecstatic Being through the inspired poetry of the great mystics of Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism.  Through guided meditations, contemplations and chants we’ll dive into the boundless One that is the source of the many sublime expressions of unity consciousness we find in the writings of sages and bodhisattvas.  Infinite love and unbridled joy suffuse the experience of union with the Infinite. This weekend retreat will be a celebration of the living presence of the Divine within everyone, right here, right now.  We’ll use the power of mantra and meditation, as well as the inspired words of great masters, to leave the ordinary mind behind and rest in the immeasurable joy, love, compassion and equanimity of your true nature!  You are invited to bring your own favorite spiritual poem to share. Give yourself this weekend retreat to joyfully deepen your meditation practice and immersion in the Divine.

The retreat runs from Friday at 7pm until Sunday at noon.
