| The Mountain Hermitage offers a uniquely supportive space of solitude and silence for qualified individuals who wish to undertake longer periods of intensive meditation practice. This retreat will offer the opportunity for Vipassana/Insight, Brahma Vihara (Loving-kindness, Compassion, Appreciative joy, and Equanimity) practice, and Samatha/Concentration in the lineage of Venerable Pa Auk Sayadaw. In consultation with the teacher, students will decide upon a course of practice that may be directed specifically toward Vipassana, Brahma Vihara or Samatha practice or some combination of the three. |
