The DharmaMind 
Spring Meditation Retreat

with David Smith
16-22 May
(starts Friday evening)

DharmaMind means the innate free and non-attached quality of our true self. Together on this Buddhist retreat we will explore, through practise and discussion, the utter simplicity of the “nature of mind” practice that leads us to recognising our true nature and liberation from suffering and the wheel of birth and death.

The retreat will comprise of two parts. Firstly a programme of intensive meditation lasting Friday until Monday afternoon, followed by a more leisurely optional programme including a guided walk of the mountains and woodlands around Loch Ness with additional possibility of visiting the Findhorn Foundation and local historical sites.

There is also the option of participating in work periods at Anam Cara, working either in the tree nursery, organic garden or sampling the alternative building programme currently under way. Morning and evening meditation periods will be maintained through the week.

David Smith is leader of the DharmaMind Buddhist Group based in Birmingham (UK) and leads retreats both in the UK and abroad. He is also author of 3 books on dharma practice and understanding. More useful background information can be found on www.dharmamind.net.
