Presence: Our Only Refuge
These times demand a strong Presence if we are to care as Love for the world right now. Let’s come together in truth and love, to connect as our true nature for ourselves and our world. This brings forward wisdom and compassion. Naturally the right action follows.
We'll sit and share together sacred space to welcome in our true nature, our silent nature, that is always here and never changes. Marlies takes you by the hand into the cathedral of your being so together we connect, taste and abide as Presence: our only refuge.
There will be periods of meditation, Dharma talk, movement, inquiry and sharing.
