The meditation retreat allowed me to be with myself, to see myself through inner eyes and to face the truth of my existence. Persisting in this state of active awareness brought me less resistance, although it was still present in some way until the end. Resistance to remaining and staying consciously active in the technique and in the posture.

I clearly perceived the strength of my mind, almost like a living entity. It dove into all past experiences, bringing stories, images… And it felt like a struggle to make it stop.

The retreat experience helped me to quiet down a little and to persist more in bringing forth the strength of presence. The teachings that were shared brought clarity about the process of spiritual development and growth, encouraging continuity in spiritual practice and inner work in order to develop the divine qualities of being.
