During this retreat, we have the perfect opportunity to deepen our experience of refuge through strengthening our reliance on the Three Precious Jewels: Buddha, Dharma (Buddha’s teachings) and Sangha (the spiritual community) in each session. The more sessions you can attend, the better you will feel. This new or “renewed”  confidence in the power of refuge can positively affect every moment of your life.

Each session is self-contained. You may drop-in to sessions as you are able, treat yourself to a weekend, or join into the sessions during the week, in a very blessed and quiet space.

Everyone is welcome to this retreat regardless of level of experience. It is especially suitable for beginners who are interested in gaining experience of the Buddhist way of life.
