In a world filled with complexity and uncertainty is it possible to be truly happy?
This retreat, open to all, will show us how by deepening our understanding of the Buddha’s path, we can come to know this kind of happiness. As we continue on this path, we learn to live in the world with an ever-increasing kindness and understanding of ourselves and each other.
For this course, sliding scale fees are $80, $130, or $200. We also offer a scholarship fee of $40, and no-fee enrollment for those who request a fee-waiver. Our “Pay What You Can Afford" system supports the cultivation of a dynamic and inclusive community and contributes to the health and vibrancy of the sangha.

A note on dana (generosity)
Most IMS teachers—like insight teachers around the world—rely on the generosity of students for their livelihood, and receive no compensation from course fees. All IMS online teachers receive a modest dana advance from IMS to guarantee a minimum level of financial support. (Click here to learn more about the dana practice.) There will be an opportunity to offer a contribution to your teacher at the end of this course.
