Led by Venerable Drolma
This is a 9-day residential intermediate course!
Insight Into Emptiness is a course/study retreat based on the book of the same title by Kensur Jampa Tegchok and edited by Bhikshuni Thubten Chodron.
During the course, the group will be reading, studying, discussing and meditating upon select chapters for the purpose of gaining greater understanding of this profound topic. In addition, there will be sessions of purification and accumulation practices to support this study.
To make the most of this course we highly recommend reading the book (or at least a few chapters) before you come for the course. This is a book you can read again and again to gain greater insights, so please bring your own copy.
