Annual extended sesshin is an opportunity to deepen our practice, to gather the extended sangha, hold ceremonies and experience the beauty of the Hudson Valley. This year, three students will be receiving the precepts in a Jukai ceremony. The retreat be hosted by the Won Dharma Center in Clavernack, New York and be led by both Barry Magid and Karen Terzano. More information about the space and location can be found on their site here - https://wondharmacenter.org/
Financials should not be a reason to miss this retreat. For each rooming option there are three rates of payment - a base rate, a supporting rate, and a sustainer rate. Rather than request a certain level of financial support or scholarship, please look at the costs and determine which fits with what you're able to afford. If additional help is needed beyond this just reach out to Barry at bmmagid@gmail.com.
During the retreat there will be two schedules - a more traditionally intense sesshin with more sitting time - led by Karen Terzano, and a no-gain sesshin with more unstructured time that Barry will follow. If you do the more rigorous schedule, you can still have dokusan with Barry. Closer to the retreat you'll be asked to commit to one schedule. You can do either track regardless of when during the week you arrive.
If you would like to ask to room with someone specific or have any other logistical question, you can email Hope at hblosser2@gmail.com
