MINI-RETREAT WITH ZEN MASTER THICH TINH TU - SUNDAY, APRIL 12, 2009
From time to time, we can set aside some time for a retreat or a day of mindfulness so we can sit, walk slowly, smile, eat lunch with friends and enjoy being together as though we are the happiest people on Earth.
This is not just a retreat, it is a treat.
–Thich Nhat Hanh
The Broward Lotus Sangha and Tu Viên Húõng Hai
Are pleased to invite you to a Mini-Retreat
Led by Zen Master Thich Tinh Tu
Sunday, April 27th, 2008
in Davie, FL
From 6:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M.
Thich Tinh Tu is a Monastic Dharma Teacher and member of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh’s Tiep Hien Order. For many years Thich Nhat Hanh held his retreats for the Vietnamese community at Master Thich Tinh Tu’s Kim Son Monastery in California.
The Mini-Retreat will be conducted in English and Vietnamese in Plum Village style. In the morning, we will enjoy periods of chanting, sitting, and walking meditation, as well as Thay Nhat Hanh’s Mindful Movements, followed by Dharma Teachings from Zen Master Thich Tinh Tu. In the afternoon, we will enjoy periods of guided meditation, chanting, and tea meditation, as well as Dharma Discussions and Mindful Sharing from the four-fold Sangha. This Mini-Retreat will provide a wonderful opportunity for those who want to deepen their mindfulness practice with time for reflection and silence.
In the Buddhist spirit of generosity and inclusiveness, this event is offered free of charge and open to all practitioners. However, your generosity in providing a donation or Dana for the dharma teacher and the monastic and lay Sanghas is gratefully accepted and encouraged as, without it, we would be unable to continue providing these services to the community. Your kind donation helps support the activities of the Sangha (e.g., defray the costs associated with offering retreat space, dharma teachings and activities, beverages and meals) and is greatly appreciated.

To register, please e-mail the Sangha . Directions and specific instructions for participation will be sent to those who register. Please register early as we need to know how many meals to provide.
Thank you and a Lotus Flower.
