At Home Retreat: Discover Your True Self

Don Oakley offers this "Discover Your True Self" retreat, most of which was recorded during a recent weekend-long, in-person retreat at Well Being Retreat Center, where Don teaches monthly retreats.

There are many spiritual practices suggested to seekers as the true path and most do have value. But, since these body/minds have limited time, energy and resources, the question really is, "what is the most efficient and direct path that is likely to produce my desired results in this lifetime?" If we can recognize our True Self all else will follow. Our True Self can be recognized in a moment. This retreat is structured to create the fertile ground for that discovery.

The program is a direct path teaching to your true nature. It is revealed as an already-present capacity, alive and well in all of us, just awaiting your discovery.

The program includes five main sessions: 1. An Introductory talk, 2. a Guided Meditation; 3. Don's Discourse on "Discover Your True Self"; 4. a Session of Dialogues (Q&A); and 5. Retreat Wrap-up. These sessions are lightly edited live recordings.

The main topics presented are:
-    Direct Experience Over Belief
-    Awareness as the True Self
-    Letting Go of Conditioning
-    The Investigative Approach to Spirituality
-    The Illusion of Fulfillment Through External Means
-    Observing Without Controlling
-    The Limitations of Thought and Language
-    Questioning Assumptions
-    No Need to Improve the Self
-    The Ever-Present Nature of Being

Don also offers before and after guidance on how to best use this content.
