Re: [Downtown Dharma Listserve] Fwd: Free Meditation Retreat for Young People

Hi Sangha!

Thank you for sending this out, Devin. I don't have too much to add to Nicky's email other than a 'heck ya' recommendation. If you can make it up to Boston, it will be a special few days! 

One special aspect of this retreat is that there will be some group meditations each day (also called circling). And I will re-emphasize that it is a donation-based retreat, so there is no required attendance cost. 

Please reach out to me at this email or benjamin@dharma-gates.org if you have any questions ✊❤

With love,

BI

Hi all,

Dharma Gates, the organization that BI works with, is hosting a retreat in Massachusetts and one of the organizers asked me to share it with the community. Please see below.

All the best,

Devin

Hi Devin,

This is Nicky Antonellis reaching out from Dharma Gates. We are a 501(c)(3) with the goal of connecting young people to meditation, Buddhism and the Dharma. To this end, we are running a donation-based meditation retreat for young people near New York & Boston, with the meditation teacher Beth Upton, who was a Buddhist monk studying with Pa Auk Sayadaw in Myanmar for 10 years. If you are able to share this opportunity with anyone in your Sangha or with other Sangha's you're connected with who may find value in this retreat. It is March 3rd to 6th over a long weekend and geared towards folks under 36 years of age.

You can find out more and register here! Below I have included some promotional flyers to check out too. Let me know if you have any questions or comments!

Thank you!

Nicky
