An Afternoon Meditation Retreat

Saturday, March 31, 2012, 1 - 5 p.m. 

The goal of meditation is peace and the path to it is peaceful. However, it does require a skill that can only be developed through regular and constant practice. This mini-retreat will offer participants the opportunity to practice alternating periods of sitting with walking meditation in a relaxed, quiet, and peaceful environment. It will help generate continuity and momentum in your practice. The retreat is suitable for people with meditation experience who can sit for at least a 30-minute session. 

John Cianciosi is author of The Meditative Path (Quest Books, 2001) and a student of the late Venerable Ajahn Chah. Ordained a Buddhist monk in 1972, he served as spiritual director of monasteries in Thailand and Australia. John also is adjunct professor at the College of DuPage in Glen Ellyn.
