Jason Siff - Recollective Awareness Retreat
Sunday May 20 - Saturday May 26
Hartzer Park Bowral Jason Siff – a renowned insight meditation teacher – will be visiting Australia in May 2012. Jason teaches an approach to insight meditation called recollective awareness – based on the principles of gentleness, permission, and interest. It emphasizes open awareness, and encourages the student to remember, write down and reflect on her or his meditation experience, and in this way, mine its insights. The approach thus honors both the mindfulness and the recollection aspects of the Buddha’s original teaching of the ‘direct path’ to realisation. Jason Siff’s long experience includes time spent in Sri Lanka as a monk in the 1980s. Over the last two decades Jason has been teaching retreats in the USA and Australia. Jason’s approach to teaching meditation has been enriched by his psychotherapy training. A number of his teachings are available at www.skillfulmeditation.org, the website of the Skillful Meditation Project where he is the guiding teacher. |
