Silent Meditation Retreat
October 11th through the 12th, 2025
8:30am - 5:30pm daily
Dorje Ling is pleased to offer our annual meditation retreat this October. Both beginners and experienced meditators are warmly welcome!
Join Matthew Small, Dorje Ling’s program director, in exploring meditation techniques:
- Day 1: Shamatha (calm abiding) meditation
- Day 2: Vipassana (insight) meditation
The day will be divided into increasingly longer sessions with instructions from Matthew using the texts: Natural Liberation by Gyatrul Rinpoche, The Attention Revolution by B. Alan Wallace, PhD, as well as other sources.
We will provide simple vegetarian lunches. If you have any dietary restrictions or allergies, please bring your own food.
The recommended donation is $20 for each day. Please offer what you can: no one will be turned away for lack of funds.
The retreat is designed as a two-day event, but you are welcome to register for just one day. We just ask that everyone arrives on time and stays for the whole day to minimize interruptions. Meditations will primarily be silent so please respect other people's need for focus and reflection.
Capacity is 15 people per day so please register early
