The Way of the Ancestors

October 15 - October 17

Online

The Lotus Institute invites you to a 3-day online retreat with Dharma Teachers Larry Ward, Peggy Rowe, Joe Reilly, Ava Avalos and other friends. We are gathering to honor and practice with our blood, spiritual and land ancestors. This is an auspicious time of year when many cultures have ceremonies and gatherings to celebrate our ancestors.

Each day we will practice meditation, listen to a dharma talk, enjoy mindful movement, and share in the healing energy of music. These experiences are designed to help us deeply connect with and cherish our ancestors, who are waiting for us to come home.
