SUMMARY:Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi | Five-Day Hybrid Retreat “Living the Best Life: The Buddha’s Guidance for Lay Disciples” (CST/CDT, US)
DESCRIPTION:During the Buddha’s time, thousands of people left the household life to take up the lifestyle of monks and nuns, but the Buddha also had hundreds of thousands of disciples who continued to live at home. To guide his lay disciples, the Buddha offered a rich body of teachings that would enable them to live the best life—a truly noble life—while fulfilling their household duties. Over five days, from Friday evening, August 30, through Tuesday noon, September 3, Bhante will lead a retreat focused on the Buddha’s teachings for laypeople. The retreat will be based primarily on the Maha Mangala Sutta, but Bhante will gather a vast number of suttas and other texts that show how a lay disciple can walk the path to liberation while dwelling amid “the dust of the world.” The retreat will include Dhamma talks, discussion periods, and five sessions of meditation each day. It will also provide the opportunity for those who haven’t yet “gone for refuge” to go for refuge to the Three Jewels, the first decisive step in formally becoming a follower of the Buddhadharma.\nFor more information:\nBhikkhu Bodhi Retreat\n
