PLEASE NOTE: There are no Supporter Rates with Guaranteed Single Rooms for this Retreat. For over 30 years Jack Kornfield has been making an annual pilgrimage to the high and spacious desert of Yucca Valley. This retreat is an opportunity to practice in the serene and natural beauty of the high desert in full bloom. The beautiful desert environment becomes a mirror for the beauty of the unfolding heart and the spaciousness of mind achieved through the meditation practice. For many, it has become an annual springtime pilgrimage. Join Jack and other teachers to deeply experience the Dharma in this favorable combination of conditions and teachings. This retreat emphasizes quieting the mind, opening the heart, and developing loving-kindness, clarity and depth of practice. The retreat will include systematic vipassana instructions, silent sitting and walking periods, dharma talks, interviews and a daily guided movement meditation. An excellent first retreat or a great way to renew your practice. Held at the Joshua Tree Spiritual Retreat Center in the high desert near Joshua Tree National Park, about an hour from Palm Springs.
