Urban retreat: The Selfless Now

Saturday 9 April | 9am – 5pm

In person at the Metta Centre (Bankstown) & online via Metta Centre’s Facebook live

Registration for in person attendance is essential through Eventbrite

Cost: By donation

While the teaching of non-self (Anatta) is considered one of the more refined layers of the Buddhist path of meditation, it is possible for anyone to catch moments of insight into this profound state of being. These valuable moments of insight have the power to reorientate the way we live our lives and practice the Dhamma. Ajahn Sadaro will lead a one day meditation retreat at the Metta Centre on Saturday the 9th of April focused on practices that can help with the development of insight into non-self. The retreat is aimed at intermediate level practitioners, but beginners are also welcome.
