Our next retreat will be a daylong with Chas DiCapua, the Resident Teacher at the Insight Meditation Society (IMS) in Barre, MA.
Saturday, March 24
9am – 4pm
Friends Meeting House, Hanover, NH
Theme – “Awakening Within Your Relationships”
Chas has been practicing mindfulness and Buddhist meditation, primarily in the Theravada school, for over 20 years. He has trained with Burmese meditation masters, western monastics of the Thai Forest tradition and senior western Vipassana teachers. Chas has spent over 2 years of combined time in silent, intensive retreat.
In 2003 Chas was invited to be the Resident Teacher at the Insight Meditation Society where he continues to serve in that role. He is a graduate of the four year Insight Meditation Society / Spirit Rock Teacher Training Program led by Jack Kornfield, Joseph Goldstein and others. He is interested in how the basic material of our everyday lives, including relationships, can be used as a vehicle for awakening.
Chas teaches retreats at IMS, at various centers and sanghas throughout the country, and offers Spiritual Counseling for individuals. To listen to his talk titled “The Illusion of Not Good Enough” click here. You will need to scroll down the page to the Visiting Teachers listed in alpha order.
