Online Meditation Day With Ven Canda

~ organised and hosted by Gaia House:

“Empathy and Resilience”

Recently, empathy seems to have fallen out of favour. It may be tempting to think that empathy makes us weak and vulnerable in this scary world. But empathy is our basic humanity, and recent scientific studies show it is highly correlated with resilience.

An empathetic and resilient mind creates the perfect space to develop the two wings of Buddhism — compassion and wisdom. In this day retreat, we will explore this relationship and practice balancing a soft and receptive attitude with inner strength and wisdom.

The retreat is suitable for all levels of experience and will include talks, guided meditation and an opportunity for discussion.

This retreat is organised by Gaia House. If you have queries regarding this particular retreat, please contact Gaia House direct.
