A Sanctuary of Sound Retreat: Meditation with Mantra
Full Day Retreat at Fort Worth Nature Center
Mantra is the sanskirt word for protection. We can incorporate mantras into our meditation. This practice causes us to develop a mind that is protected by wisdom and to experience our pure potential. The mantra we recite in this retreat - OM AH HUM, which is known as the mantra of all Buddhas - to establish the powerful protection of all the Buddhas in our mind.
During this retreat we will learn about the mantra itself, the meditation practice, and various ways we can engage with this meditation to transform our mind. During the breaks we can enjoy the natural sanctuary the environment offers and experience peace inwardly and in the space around.
Take a gentle mid-autumn pause and restore your spirit with a day of meditation, peace, and quiet away from the city’s rush.
This retreat is good for anyone wanting to meditate, from the absolute beginner to the seasoned practitioner. All are welcome!
Lunch: Unfortunately we cannot provide lunch at this event, but refreshments will be offered. To preserve a sense of retreat, we encourage you to stay onsite by bringing lunch with you.
