The way of the Buddha is to know yourself;
To know yourself is to forget yourself;
To forget yourself is to be awakened by all things. Dogen - Thirteenth Century Zen Monk

‘Rapture and Emptiness in the Natural World’ - A One Day Retreat with Eric Kolvig
Taos Mountain Sangha is pleased to announce a one day, hiking/meditation retreat with renown teacher, Eric Kolvig on Sunday, September 26 2010. The retreat is open to all who are reasonably fit and capable of doing easy to moderate hiking. We will spend the day in the mountains near Taos hiking amongst the Fall colors, meditating, listening to a Dhamma talk, and in discussion. Registration is limited to 20 people and participants must register and pay for the retreat prior to Monday, September 20 2010. Registration is at the Sangha and all participants will be expected to sign a release of liability form prior to departure. Plan to bring your own lunch, 2 liters of water, a Crazy Creek chair or similar chair for sitting, hiking boots, and poles if desired, rain gear and layered clothing as it may be cool during the day. We will meet promptly at 8:00 AM at the Sangha for car pooling to the trail head and return by 5:00 PM to the Sangha. The retreat will be held at the Sangha should inclement weather preclude hiking. Further information is available by contacting Bob Parker at: rpa@newmex.com or 575-751-1963. The fee for the retreat is $25 and is non-refundable.
While our wish is to provide all who come on retreat at TMS with an environment most conducive to deepening meditation practice, there are practical limitations regarding the level of support we can reasonably offer. This is especially true for wilderness based retreats. In particular, we are unable to provide medical and psychological care. For this reason, we request that - apart from unforeseen emergencies - you take care of your own health needs while on retreat. TMS reserves the right to review all applicants and advise them of their acceptance or non acceptance into a retreat. If you have any questions about your capabilities for participating in a retreat, it is important to discuss these concerns with the retreat leaders prior to submitting an application. Applications contain detailed questionaires on medical and psychological health and medication information that help the retreat leaders to make an assessment for participation.
