Limitless Clarity: Meditating on the Mind's Pure Nature with Gen Chöma


Friday, May 11 – Sunday, May 13

Get away for the weekend and go deep into the blissful refuge and clarity of your own mind.
When we are in touch with the basic clarity and purity of our own mind, we can experience a profound inner peace from which arises deep happiness and contentment. During this weekend retreat, we can learn meditations to help us achieve these states of mind in our daily life.

The retreat schedule will allow lots of time for quiet relaxation and community, enjoying delicious meals, and exploring the beautiful countryside in the Los Altos Hills.

Retreat sessions run from Friday evening through to 12:30 on Sunday afternoon. You are welcome to attend any portion of the retreat. The schedule is listed below.

Registration Fees:

$225 for the weekend in male or female dorms with bunk beds
$185 for camping
$75 for one day only (non-residential with food)
$450 single-occupancy cabin
$340 double-occupancy cabin per person (twin or double)
