Breathing Our Freedom
Weekend Retreat with
Tempel Smith
June 1, 2, and 3
Tempel visits from the San Francisco area where he is a senior teacher at Spirit Rock Meditation Center in the Insight (Vipassana) lineage. Scroll down for his full bio.
In a teaching called the Mindfulness of Breathing Discourse (MN 118, Anapanasati Sutta) the Buddha gave one of his most detailed step by step instructions of how to develop meditation practice from simple awareness of breathing in and out, through a deep embodiment and concentration, to the development of liberating insights. During this weekend we will practice silent sitting and walking meditation throughout the day with some guided meditations, talks on this topic and time for Q&A.
Saturday and Sunday mornings will begin with an optional sitting 9:00 – 9:30 am, Tempel’s teachings and the official start will be at 9:45. Registration for this weekend will open April 1 on the BDC website.
