COME, join the band of enlightened rogues, rebels and mischievous merry makers,
For the Enlightened One, all that exists is nothing but the Self ...

COME, you wise, intelligent, holy, beautiful, all-encompassing, self-existent one,
You know and I know you know that the Enlightened One knows,
All existence is nothing but the Self ...

COME, cleanse the dust from your soul, empty your mind of grief, heal your wounded heart,
Quench your thirst from the pool of your own Conscious Direct Knowing,
And share your overflowing and all embracing loving heart with me and a few friends ...

TELL ME WHO YOU ARE
The Enlightenment Retreat is the journey of directly knowing who you are.
The Retreat inspires openness, trust, joy, acceptance, love and understanding while encouraging one to soften what is rigid and inflexible in the body, mind and feelings.
The setting is a meditation rich, zen-like environment that focuses attention firmly and lovingly towards expanding direct conscious awareness of the true self.
I invite you to explore the potency of the Enlightenment Retreat for your personal and professional spiritual development.

Eric Grabow

 “Out of a great need we are all holding hands, and climbing” -Hafiz

This is an invitation to gather in a setting of serene summer beauty near the Sierra crest.  We will share an intention to be fully present as we sit together face to face, engaged in the core practice of dyad contemplation, open to whatever may arise from our practice.  It is an opportunity to go deep.

Our time together will be nourished by clear water, clean air, good food and good company, seasoned by occasional poetry, and held in silence. How cool is that?

The intensive will be lead by Erik Grabow at Origin over Labor Day weekend, September 4, 5 and 6. Arrival and orientation is on Thursday evening, September 3. The cost for room, board and the retreat is $350 or $325 if you pay in full by August 3. This will be a beautiful weekend.

To register, please send a $50 deposit or full payment to Osha Reader at Origin, Star Route, Sattley CA 96124
