Skillful Compassion
Based on Karen Armstrong’s work, as reflected in her Compassion Project, this weekend retreat will explore the dynamics of compassion from an interfaith perspective. We will have ample opportunities to explore the spirituality of compassion as we become aware of our own personal need for compassion. In fact, the more compassionate we are to ourselves, the compassionate we become in the presence of others. Through directed meditation, deep study, honest reflection, and the practice of mindfulness, we will rejoice together in the development of our personal practice of skillful compassion. Karen Armstrong’s book, The Twelve Steps of Compassion, will serve as a major guide for our weekend retreat.
