As Long as Space Remains;
And Living Beings Endure
May I too Remain
To Dispel the Miseries of this World
Shantideva, 7th Century Indian Buddhist Pandita

  Contemplative Life Initiative @ MIT

Meditation is an intentional turning of our attention toward moment-to-moment awareness of our thoughts, emotions and feelings. It is a practice of awakening the heart, and a radical acceptance of what is revealed about our true selves. This awakening allows us to recognize the difference between "thinking" and "being", and thereby to consciously alter those aspects of our thinking that obstruct our personal growth.

The day-long retreat will consist of instructions and practice of various meditation techniques, yoga, and discussion.
