Weekend Vipassana Retreat
With Amita Schmidt
March 28-30, 2008
Insight Meditation of Cleveland will be sponsoring a 3-day Vipassana Meditation retreat at The Cedar Hills Conference Center in Painesville, Ohio, over the weekend of March 28, 29, and 30, 2008. Vipassana (or insight) meditation is a simple practice of mindful awareness of our bodies, feelings, thoughts and consciousness. Through mindfulness, insights begin to arise naturally and we see more clearly how the mind works. As we see more clearly, the grasping qualities of the mind loosen their hold and we experience freedom from suffering. The retreat will be led by Amita Schmidt and will consist of alternating periods of sitting and walking meditation.
