” ‘Here I am’ – but am I really? “
(Tarthang Tulku in Challenging Journey, Creative Journey, p 245)

We are very happy to announce that senior teacher Arnaud Maitland, who is currently in private retreat, agreed to lead a retreat weekend October 16-18 for those wishing to turn inward.
Participants are asked to free their time from all other obligations during the time of the retreat, from Friday, October 16th, to Sunday, October 18th, and to organise a place where they can practice privately and have internet access as well.
This weekend retreat will be based on Tarthang Tulku’s book Challenging Journey, Creative Journey, chapter 37, “Finding Your Way Home”, and chapter 49, “Perfect Stillness”. And also on inner inquiry as described in Revelations of Mind, chapter 59, and on “Tuning the Senses”, as described by Tarthang Tulku in Joy of Being.
The books can be ordered through Dharma Publishing (California) or the Lotus Design Shop (Amsterdam). For those without access to the books, scans of the chapters named above will be made available.
The retreat will be in English.
