  • Dirt And Dharma - A Nature Retreat

    Teacher: Shogan Parker
    Cost: 2 days accommodation+ R350 surcharge
    Dates:

    shogan parkerThis retreat brings our practice into direct contact with the living earth. With each step, each breath, we are invited to drop below the noise of thought and return to the ground beneath our feet -  to the dirt, the air, the quiet movement of life all around us. Through walking meditation, outdoor stillness, mindful movement, and creative response, we will explore the meeting point of inner and outer landscapes. We will work with natural phenomena as invitations to presence, humility, and embodied wisdom.

    The retreat includes periods of zazen, slow walking in nature, writing or drawing as contemplative response, and gentle ritual grounded in the turning season. Come as you are, and leave more rooted.

    William (Shogan) has been practising meditation for nearly 20 years, cultivating stillness and inquiry. He took precepts with Dae Chong, Osho at Poplar Grove and now leads morning and evening zazen at the BRC, weaving verses from the Dhammapada into meditation for reflection and insight. With a keen interest in how the Dharma might evolve in an AI-driven, multiplanetary future, William embraces both tradition and possibility. He also guides qigong in the mornings and offers tai chi in the afternoons, integrating movement into mindfulness. His practice is an invitation - to sit, to move, and to explore the ever-expanding nature of awareness.

    Dates:

    john homewood nov2019Are you a man whose very identity, relationships, career and beliefs are in transition?
    Is your heart yearning for a more meaningful and soul-centred vision for your life?
    Are you also a man who has been doing everything “right” by societal standards - yet still feels like something’s missing?
    Do you feel called to something deeper, more meaningful - but don’t know what that is or where to begin?

    This powerful retreat facilitated by John Homewood will assist you to find new focus, vision and purpose. By shifting self-limiting perceptions and attitudes, you will release that which no longer serves you and become open and receptive to the potential that life has for you now.

    You will gain greater wisdom, purpose and self-knowledge, combined with greater self-worth and emotional balance. You will leave refocused and de-stressed, and with greater mental and emotional resilience. This profound shift experience will open the doors for you to navigate this rapidly changing world with new tools and a more effective level of awareness and insight.
