Retreats at the Global Retreat Centre have two key
components. These are:
1. Examination of some of the deeper truths about
human nature. We work with the understanding that there is an energy
of goodness within us, and that this increases or decreases according
to our habits of thought and feeling. Knowing more about our selves,
and how we function, gives us the power to think and act more positively.
2. Periods of silence in which to reflect on our
higher feelings, values, and purpose in life. Peace of mind, intrinsic
to all of us but easily lost when we become trapped in mundane concerns,
is restored. This experience helps connect us to an unchanging and
infinite source of love and truth.
The aim is to enable participants to recharge their
own sense of well being, and learn how to maintain this strength in
everyday life. Lectures, workshops, pure vegetarian food, walks in the
beautiful grounds, and a peaceful atmosphere all contribute to the process.
