Life is an Offering ~ Meditation Retreat in Bali
With Bruce Davis PhD and Ruth Davis
February 21, 2021 - March 1, 2024
A meditation retreat in Bali is a pilgrimage and an opportunity to experience a culture of great heart and spirituality. Our intention is to immerse ourselves fully in the sacred, discovering our own sacredness within. The Balinese teach us to offer everything from our heart and receive the flowers of peace from deep inside. This practice is the source of our infinite heart meditation practice that we share with guests today in our retreats in Assisi, Italy and Santa Barbara, California.
The Balinese have three principals that they live by; Keep balance between yourself and others, between yourself and nature and between yourself and God. By surrendering and returning to calm everyday, we can soften mental activity. While meditating in the heart, we learn to embrace the love that radiates from within. Life arises out of love and returns to the eternal heart of love.
We are practicing calming the mind and entering the treasure of the spiritual heart. Enjoying periods of silence allows us to be present with the many gifts that Bali has to offer. The teachers are always available for questions and retreat direction. Your retreat includes a private session with Ruth on how to deepen your personal meditation practice. And share meditation based on the balinese prinicipal of offering all the beauty of their heart into each day.
We travel to sacred temples & priest/esses. We will visit a local village healer and water temple for these unique blessings here.
The remote village and retreat center where we stay is surrounded by rice fields with a view to Mt Agung, the holiest mountain in Bali.
