9-day retreat at the Blue Mountains Insight Meditation Centre, Medlow Bath.

Taught by Patrick Kearney and Emma Pittaway

Our practice is based on mindfulness, which emerges from the continuity of awareness. How can we maintain continuous awareness? By recognising the fact that awareness is part of nature; it’s not something we need to generate. When we “try” to be aware, our effort is based on our desire to be someone different, to have something different. But if we are already aware, then what is there to try for? When we stop trying and allow ourselves to recognise what is already here, the continuity of awareness naturally emerges.
