You are warmly invited to join Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh and the fourfold sangha of Monks, Nuns, Laymen, and Laywomen for a special residential retreat at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. When we take time to slow down, breathe, and smile we can become truly present for ourselves, for our beloved ones and for our environment. We see the smiles of our children, know the wonder of being alive and understand how deeply we are connected to one another. Out of this awareness our true heart of understanding and love awakens. During this five-day retreat, we will practice together as a community, as a spiritual family, learning to lovingly embrace our sorrows and fears with the art of mindful living and bring about healing and transformation.
Date: August 8 – 13, 2011
Location: UBC, Vancouver, BC
