2010 Retreats and Classes Schedule |
|
Please read Sri Yukteswar's overall instructions for this year: “Namaste We need to listen to the things that drive us towards peace. Things that move us in the direction of Sat or truth will be the wings that free us from the confusion or maya of the world. We cannot participate in life and continually be fearful. We have to let go of the fear and drive ourselves into the arms of peace to survive the mighty distraction of the world. We are all here to heal the wound of not knowing who we are and where we belong. We do this in friendship and with love. And we do this by pursuing the path of a teacher or guide to help us along the way. In the year 2010 we will be discussing things that free us, that bring us back to peace and that ultimately settle us on our pathway, feet solid on that ground.”
Retreats: “In retreats, we will take time to focus in and really establish close connections to what is important. Each one will be given for the group of dedicated students that signs up ahead of time and makes commitment to it. It is a time to get our priorities straight and make our commitments to what is important. In that way the retreats will be given, not as a drop-in service, but as a sign up with intention at least two weeks in advance, because where we commit our lives will follow. If we don't allow the self to settle on commitment our lives will stray from our goals. So committed retreats. Two or three days, only a few in the year. This is a year for followers who want to go deep and follow their commitments to that deepening.” Tentative retreat times: Summer Retreat, Santa Cruz, (possibly mid-August. I'm still researching this if you have any input for me about locations, times, etc.); Los Angeles Sept. 25-26, 2010. One more retreat later in the year may be given. There won't be a winter retreat this year because they wanted the retreats to be in the second half of the year.
Classes: “We will be conducting classes only to those who have signed up in advance and follow through on that . That's who the classes will be for. If someone finds out about it late, and wants to come in at the end, they will have to ask me first. We cannot expect a crop to come in the fall if we don't commit to getting the seeds in the ground in the spring and follow through on them. In a year like 2010, we will need to know where our priorities lie and it's time to state them.” Sri Yukteswar
