A Wide and Wonderful Path

A samatha-vipassana retreat. From a stable developed calmness, we explore ways of looking that free body, heart, and mind of contraction and dukkha. Utilising and opening out the teachings of dependent origination and emptiness, in clear and accessible ways.

Nathan Glyde
Meditation Instructions to open us to the empty and fabricated nature of all phenomena. Everything is made up of other things. Everything is dividable into parts, components. All is put together: Sankhara. But, importantly, it is put together from put together things, there is no end to the parts exploration. There is no 'one' at the bottom of the pile. Everything is made up. Everything is empty of existing inherently individually seperately.
