I've also called it "Possibly Changing My Life Forever" or "Reinstilling the Importance of Meditation Again" or "That Really Great Thing I Won From WCPT". But whatever it ends up being, I'll blogging about it here.
Tomorrow at 2 PM I start learning Primordial Sound Meditation. I learned TM (transcendental mediation) about 19 years ago, and I still practice it from time to time, but not like I did several years ago. That's why I entered the contest to win this retreat. And win it I did (which still bowls me over).
It begins tomorrow afternoon at 2. It runs all week long, until Sunday afternoon. I'll meditate (with those primordial sounds. First I need to learn exactly what they are; apparently they're connected to your birth time), I'll do yoga (they say it's for beginner and intermediate levels, which makes me unbelievably relieved, as I'm not wont to twist into a pretzel), and I'll attend lectures and hear Deepak Chopra speak. THE Deepak Chopra. You know - the guy who hangs out with Oprah Winfrey and wrote a bazillion books and is wisdom beyond comprehension? Yep, him.
Did I mention this was all free? Yes it is. Because I won it and am still shocked and stunned at my luck.
I even get to be treated to awesome vegetarian cuisine and traipse about the grounds, blissful and serene, presumably with a tummy full of lentils.
I'll let you know more when I know more. 'Til then, I'm immensely jazzed up. I get to retreat from the usual daily routines and enter a world of mantra and movement, of music and contemplation. And curry. Hopefully lots of curry.
An image just came to mind for the upcoming week. So I looked around online to find it. This is the image:Be curious to see if this means anything pertinent in a few days' time ...
