In-person
This unguided retreat combines the practices of Guru Yoga, which is the gateway to receiving blessings, and making Mandala Offerings, the gateway to accumulating merit.
The Walks for World Peace combine walking and meditation, giving an opportunity to meet like minded people from the various meditation groups run by Buddha Land. Walks range in length from a short stroll to longer walks upto 3 hrs that including a break for lunch. On route there is a simple guided meditation that is suitable for beginners and those experience in meditation alike.
Retreats offer the opportunity to gain a deeper experience of meditation than in daily life. On retreat we withdraw from our usual routine and structure our time and conditions so that we can get the most out of our meditation.
These particular retreats give the chance to explore particular practices in depth. They are suitable for those with some existing experience of meditation and are unguided. Explanation of the practices can be give before sessions if you are new to them.
Step back and take a day out of busy life to focus on inner peace and inner development with a retreat at Bolton Abbey and our other retreat locations. Bolton Abbey is the ideal setting to do this, with space to unwind and relax between retreat sessions in the beautiful landscape of the Yorkshire Dales.
