Singing, Dancing, and Sitting in Stillness
with Majida, Dakini, Amrita, Prem
We joyfully invite you to join us for “Sufi Sesshin” — integrating the Dances of Universal Peace with silent meditation. The Dances of
Universal Peace (DUP) involve singing words inspired by the world’s
spiritual traditions while dancing together in a circle. Silent meditation allows us to savour the quiet.
Combining the two modalities is a powerful way to deepen the effect of each. We can experience Presence in both stillness and motion, being and doing. We amplify our ability to connect with ourselves, each other, and the Divine. No previous experience required, as simple instructions will be provided.
Cost: $135 includes shared room Fri night, and tuition (minus $15 for campervan/camping). Deposit into TSB “Amrita Bhakti” 15-3959-0372182-00 Please reference with your “name” and “sesshin”, and email Dakini
Questions/Registration: Please contact Dakini dakini.dup@gmail.com or text 0220369887
NOTE: To keep costs down, we are asking participants to bring food to share for Saturday lunch and to provide your own breakfast. We will provide teas and snacks and a simple meal for Fri night dinner.
OPTION: You are welcome to stay overnight on Saturday for an extra $35/person. All are warmly invited to the Universal Worship service Sunday at 11 am.
“The Dances of Universal Peace are an excellent way to prepare for Meditation and Meditation is an excellent way to prepare for Dances of Universal Peace.”
