Awakening Together: An Insight Dialogue BIAPoC Retreat with Tuere Sala and Peace Twesigye
August 1, 2025 - August 6, 2025
Join us for this residential Insight Dialogue retreat at the Barre Center for Buddhist Studies in Massachusetts
There is an African Proverb that says, “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” Together, we are stronger and more resilient, and we can support one another to go a little bit further on the path towards awakening. This program is about just that: supporting each other to awaken together.
We will integrate the wisdom practice of Insight Dialogue with the Four Noble Truths. We will learn to recognize the presence of suffering as a natural aspect of our interpersonal relationships. We will cultivate the recognition of the cause of suffering and the cessation of suffering through the practice of quieting the mind together. Insight Dialogue is vipassana meditation practiced in relationship. It weaves together the meditative qualities of right view, right effort, right mindfulness, and right concentration with the wisdom of Dhamma and the voice of another. During this program, we will cultivate embodied presence, inner strength, and the strength of interdependence. We will open to the multilayered, co-created moment, and learn to stand with equanimity in a tumultuous world.
