The Joy of Being

KECC

 

This residential weekend retreat will take place April 23-25, 2010 at the KECC’s Swanwick Centre, located on a beautiful 32 acre ocean-front property in Metchosin, near Victoria, B.C. on Vancouver Island (see www. krishnamurti-canada.ca). The retreat includes DVDs of a recent retreat by Eckhart Tolle entitled “The Joy of Being”.

 

Eckhart Tolle has emerged as one of the great spiritual teachers of our time. His books “The Power of Now” and “A New Earth” are international bestsellers and powerful guides for conscious living.

 

After a three year sabbatical, Eckhart has emerged, from near solitude, with fresh new ways of pointing to that infinite reality that is beyond identification with our personal history and mind. In this first retreat since his return, Eckhart will guide us on a journey into the timeless dimension – the original state – that survives in every human as the essence of Being. Come and join Eckhart on what is probably one of his most remarkable spiritual retreats. Get ready to be awakened and be shown how to rediscover what you have always been – Consciousness!

 

This video-series covers themes such as the following:

  Beyond my Conditioning – Who Am I?
A Revolutionary Spirituality

Find Death before Death
Losing “Psychic Weight”

 

Activities   Activities include DVD showings, interactive opportunities, awareness exercises, guided meditation and movement sessions. These also will be an introductory DVD of J. Krishnamurti's Teachings which had an early impact on Eckhart Tolle.

 

A Supportive Environment   The Centre’s beautiful natural setting is ideally suited for deeper enquiry and the emergence of stillness. To optimize this process and minimize distractions, silence is recommended during part of the retreat.

 

The Facilitators   This retreat is hosted by Ralph Tiller and Madelaine Tiller. Ralph was principal at the KECC’s Wolf Lake School and coordinator of the KECC outreach program. He directs the East-West Clinic, a holistic health practice in Victoria, B.C., and is a registered acupuncturist and Chinese Medicine practitioner. Madelaine is a registered psychologist practicing in Victoria and facilitates inner wellness workshops. They host Eckhart Tolle video showings in their home in Victoria and share a deep interest in exploring a conscious way of living.
