St Michael's Retreat 2nd Talk: The Healing Practice of Taking Refuge
This title has been reviewed for accuracy.
In this retreat Dharma talk, our teacher explores the healing power of taking refuge in our body, feelings, perceptions, and mental formations. He offers many concrete practices that heal: looking deeply, understanding our ignorance, trusting our body, mindful breathing, stopping and resting, fasting, embracing the present moment, offering gratitude to our body, enjoying our practice, sitting meditation, walking meditation, acknowledging the wonders of life, quieting the mind.
This is the second talk in a series given during “The Path of Emancipation,” twenty-one-day retreat in the year 1998. Thay offered this talk at St. Michael’s College, Burlington, Vermont, in the United States.
These teachings later appear in the book The Path of Emancipation.
