Simply enjoying Darjeeling

We spend our first full day in Darjeeling in quiet retreat diving into our study and practice of meditation. After the recent days of travel we are happy to be here in this mountain town sipping the world's finest teas and working hard at doing nothing. Our classes covered further the subject of meditation as I shared an outline of simple meditation steps that everyone could practice. There were also a lot of questions and answers clarifying doubts on the subject making sure everyone had a clear intellectual understanding of the mind.
