The Northfield Buddhist Meditation Center

Retreat/workshop with Tom Adducci

This workshop will be an in depth exploration of shamatha (mindfulness and awareness practice), and of the Shambhala Buddhist view, as presented in Sakyong Mipham’s book, “Turning the Mind into an Ally”. The day will include meditation instruction, silent meditation, talks, and discussion.

This will be an excellent introduction for newcomers, as well as a provocative and deepening opportunity for experienced mediators.

Lunch will be provided for those attending the retreat.

Please register for the retreat by using the contact form, so that we can plan accordingly for the workshop and lunch.

We offer all NBMC programs in the Buddhist spirit of generosity, and everyone encouraged to attend.  For this day-long event there is a suggested donation of $30 – 60, and those attending are encouraged to give, more or less, as they are able.
