Khemaka lives in rural Perthshire with his wife. He is active in his local community as a Community Councillor. His interests include renewable energy, community building through initiatives such as a community garden and of course hillwalking and the outdoors in general. He was ordained at Dhanakosa in 2004 and supports a number of local Buddhist groups. A recent development has been teaching meditation to primary school children - he enjoys a challenge!
On this retreat we will explore how our connection with nature, landscape, and the elements can support a deepening of awareness and a more embodied and harmonious approach to life. We will weave together Buddhist teachings, meditation practice, mindful walking and an appreciative and playful investigation of the natural world around us to create an experience of depth and connection.
Nature is for many of us a vital source of spiritual nourishment in an increasingly busy world. On these retreats we will combine traditional Buddhist teachings with the simple practice of spending time walking in the rich and beautiful landscapes that surround Dhanakosa. Guided walk options will be available to suit all levels of fitness.
