Event Details

The Four Noble Truths are the distilled essence of Buddhist teaching. In this retreat, each will be introduced and explored, with emphasis give to the presence of each at the heart of Jesus’ call to awaken to God’s presence in every detail of our daily lives. The teachings of both Jesus and Buddha call us to transformational honesty. They are both trying to teach us how to see and how to see all the way through! They both knew that if you see God for yourself, you will see the divine in all things.
