Went to a wonderful 3 day retreat with the Austin Sangha, Plum Blossom Sangha. There were about 10 of us from the San Antonio sangha and lots of folks from Austin. About 50 meditators or so in total. Terry Cortez led the retreat and she was terrific. Listening was the focus. I loved the whole experience and would recommend this retreat to anyone. The focus changes each year, but the annual Austin sangha retreat is always great!
Last night I was with my sangha for our regular meditation time. We did our usual 10min. sit, & 10 min. walk. Then we experienced a guided meditation by our dear teacher, Tich Nhat Hanh via an archived podcast. I felt so peaceful, so calm. After the dharma talk by one of our wonderful order of interbeing leaders, we discussed our teacher, Thay, and what meaning his continuation (death) last month meant to us. It was very beautiful and restoring. I gratefully bow deeply to the Plum Branch Sangha of San Antonio.
