SUMMARY:June 13\, 2026 Meditation Retreat: No Self\, No Problem - Exploring Anatta
DESCRIPTION:The word anatta – which means no permanently abiding self – is at the very heart and core of Buddhist meditation practice\, yet it is one of its most misunderstood concepts.\n\n\n\nWhen we explore anatta through our meditation practice\, it doesn’t mean we’re trying to get rid of who we are; it means we’re becoming more and more willing to see through the small\, false\, often negative ideas or beliefs of what we call “self.”\n\n\n\nIn actuality\, we are so much bigger than who or what we think we are. In fact\, we are not only vast\, but constantly fluid and changing: new in each moment\, and dying in each moment … much like waves on the ocean.\n\n\n\nDuring this silent meditation retreat\, we’ll be exploring anatta through various teachings\, along with meditations designed to help us loosen our tenacious grip on the ego and sense of “self\,” so that we can experience more freedom\, peace\, and ease in our lives.\n\nLEARN MORE HERE
