Goenka. She learned Anapana\, Vipassana and Metta meditation techniques and attended and did service for many retreats in this tradition over the years. Olga has been following the Buddhist path to awakening very diligently\, practicing sitting meditation several hours each day for many years\, with the basis of the most fundamental principles of sila (5 precepts)\, which is essential for achieving good samadhi (mind concentration). \nFour years ago Olga connected with the monastics in Theravada Buddhist tradition and discovered a large library of books and Dhamma talks explaining the path to awakening from perspectives renounced teachers of advanced monastic practitioners. \nRecently Olga traveled to Thailand\, a Buddhist country that preserved the Dhamma knowledge and wisdom very well\, and is also is a home to many monasteries and enlightened teachers. Olga spent time in a monastery in Thailand\, Wat Marp Jan\, studying with monastics and learning their way in order to dive deeper into the meditation practice. \nOlga has a close connection with the Empty Cloud monastery in New Jersey\, whose abbot\, Bhante Suddhaso (who has been in robes for 20 years)\, became a true friend and a guide in a more advanced meditation practice. \n\nVladimir Kuperman started practicing meditation in 2006 after returning from a transformational trip to Ladakh\, a small country bordering Tibet in the Himalayan Mountains\, and  heartfelt teaching of the Dalai Lama in the northern India. \nVladimir has attended New York Insight Meditation center for many years while living in NYC\, learning breath concentration meditation along with walking meditation and loving kindness meditation from many prominent teachers. There he also learned the importance of Sangha – a spiritual community that supports each others path. \nVladimir’s meditation practice played an integral role in establishment of Peace Temple – a spiritual retreat center in the beautiful Catskill Mountains\, devoted to creating and holding peaceful and inspiring community events\, where creativity\, spiritual growth\, sustainability\, respect for nature\, and respect for each other are practiced. \nBesides hosting the retreat\, Vladimir will lead morning yoga\, loving kindness (Meta) meditation and Walking meditation from Theravada Buddhist tradition. In addition\, Vladimir will lead sound bath sessions\, nature hike and facilitate Central American Sauna. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo register\nYou may send the complete payment\, or a 50% deposit (the remainder is due one week before the retreat start date) and fill out the form below with the screenshot of your payment. \nPrice to attend this three-day retreat is $600 and includes all meals and camping (bring all your camping gear). \n\nAdd $105 for a two-night stay in our cozy dorm with a full-size bed (bring your own bedding\, see photos below).\nAdd $420 for a three-night stay in our private cabin with a queen-size bed (bedding provided).
