The four protective meditations are a set of meditation topics designed to establish a firm foundation for growth in the Dhamma. The four are: recollection of the Buddha, meditation on loving-kindness, mindfulness of the bodily parts, and recollection of death. Over three days following Thanksgiving Day, from Friday morning, November 27, through Sunday afternoon, November 29, Ven. Bodhi will lead a retreat on these meditation subjects. The retreat will last each day from 6 am until 9 pm on Friday and Saturday and end at 5 pm on Sunday. You will practice at home, with guidance given over Zoom.
Instructions will be given each day at 8:30 am EST, so those in other time zones can join the retreat at the equivalent time in their own time zones and still catch the morning’s instructions. The first session at 6:00 am will be simple sitting and chanting.
There is no charge for the course. Donations for the monastery are always welcome.
