3-day Silent Illumination 默照禪三

– Date : 10/16, 10/17, 10/18 (Friday ~ Sunday)
– Time : 9:30 am ~ 5:30 pm
– Led by : Director of Chan Meditation Center, Ven. Chang Hwa, Ph.D.
– Location : DDMMBA  (in-person)

“Silently and serenely, forgetting all words, clearly and vividly, it appears before you.”

“Silent” means the stillness of the mind, and “illumination” means the clarity of the mind. During this retreat, Venerable will guide everyone on a journey into the “method of no method” of silent illumination. Through the gradual stilling of the mind, we will experience increasing tranquility and clarity, while awakening the mind’s inherent capacity for awareness, enabling us to see ourselves and the world as they truly are.

The daily schedule includes periods of sitting and walking meditation, dharma talks, and personal interviews with the venerable if needed. Silence is observed throughout the whole retreat.
