Fathers Retreat: The Creative Mind
A Weekend Retreat at Padmaloka

The characteristics of the creative mind are the opposite of those of the reactive mind… The creative mind loves where there is no reason to love, is happy where there is no reason for happiness, creates where there is no possibility of creativity, and in this way ‘builds a heaven in hell’s despair’.
Sangharakshita – Mind Reactive, Mind Creative

It is through awareness that we move from the reactive mind to the creative mind, from Samsara to Nirvana. On this retreat, we will explore how we can allow our creative minds to flourish in whatever conditions we find ourselves in our work, our families, our meditation, and our friendships.

Join us for a weekend of meditation, puja, talks, discussion and silence. A retreat for fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, surrogate fathers, fathers-to-be and father figures!‍
