The foundation of this retreat will emphasise the practice and underlying philosophy of calm and insight meditation, drawing its inspiration from the Theravada School. In particular the practice of mindfulness, rooted within body awareness, explores places of constriction and the way of 'letting be' or 'letting go'. Woven into the fabric of the retreat will also be a Mahayana focus exploring the essence and practice of the Bodhisattva heart, the recogntion that the appropriate response arises out of emptiness. The retreat has a devotional focus through the use of mantra and ceremony. With this foundation established, the last part of the retreat will focus on the non dual practice of Chan (Zen). Long retreats at Dharmagiri sustain themselves through the use of contemplative silence, the opportunity to deepen silence allows for the unveiling of subtler layers of mind, habit and potentiality. There will be times for weekly check ins with the ground ( in a contemplative circle) and check ins with the teachers. During the retreat the daily practice includes recitation, sitting, walking meditation, some chi kung and a daily work period
