On the 2012 Triratna International Retreat at Taraloka, Buddhafield will again be providing many of the outdoor structures — including a huge dinning tent! — and cooking for the whole event.

The retreat will be focusing on making the Buddha more alive, real, and vivid in our imaginations — reflecting on the impressive qualities of the Buddha, contemplating the mystery of Enlightenment. Some of our most dedicated and inspired practitioners will be there to share their ideas and experience, and to help us connect with the Buddha. You’ll be able to choose from a number of different ways of imagining the Buddha — through study and reflection on the traditional texts, or through chanting and singing, or through meditation and recollection of the Buddha, or through writing and storytelling.

You can book through the retreat website … but it’s filling up fast!
