It is the custom of the Orlando Insight Meditation Group to provide the opportunity for those of us who have participated in a retreat to talk about the retreat experience. Much of what transpires in a retreat is subtle and out of conscious awareness, so talking about the experience with knowledgeable people helps to integrate what was attained in conscious awareness, thereby making the learning more accessible and useful in the future.
Peter will be on a two week self-retreat until December 26, so there will be no more dhamma dialogue postings until early January. Our hope is that all who listen to these talks are benefitted, and that each enjoys a safe and happy holiday season.
