A weekend open to all who know our meditation practices.

If you want to understand the full significance and benefits of the Metta Bhavana meditation and how to practise loving kindness in your daily life, then I invite you to come on this weekend retreat. The depths, beauty and profundity of Metta will be revealed as we study the original pali text of the Karaniya Metta sutta and compare this with two English translations; one traditional, the other contemporary. We will use some verses from the latter to inspire your practice of the metta bhavana on the retreat. This retreat may change your life.

If you want to keep notes on the study or your personal reflections, then please bring something to write in/with.

The retreat will be lead by Guhyasiddhi (from the Auckland Buddhist Centre). He has been studying and practising the Metta Sutta since 2001.

Cost: $160 full waged, $140 low waged and $100 concession card holders
