RETREATS
“The invitation of freedom, of self-realization
is actually inviting you to take a permanent retreat from the story
of mind. A retreat is not an escape instead it is an offering, a
space to step away and meet yourself.”
Our vision of retreats:
… a truly special time given to immerse oneself in the stillness
of the being. Retreats are a sacred space completely away from daily
life – house, job, and family. Usually on a site surrounded
by nature, all aspects of retreat life are inviting you to fall
deeper into NOW and the realization of awakening. Many retreats are held
in verbal silence giving everyone the inner-space to explore the
mental static, emotional up-heaves, and physical attachments that
seem to impede the simplicity of one’s true being. There will
be morning meditations, and several daily meetings with Brian Qara
(there is speaking in meetings only). As the depth of support and
silence intensifies, the meetings are a penetrating investigation
into truth where people are given the opportunity to share their
daily realizations, release stories of suffering and discover without
question that who they really are is always at peace. There will always be plenty of time throughout
the day to spend in the serenity of nature. Healthy and tasty meals
will be supplied daily.
NOTE: Brian is currently taking a break from teaching to support the creation of conscious media. When time permits he still responds to emails and occasionally is available for private sessions.
If you are interested in attending a retreat with Brian Qara, you
may put your name on a sign-up list by emailing us at events@theopenflame.org
