29 May to 31 May 2020
Retreat Type: 
Scottish Sangha

"The newly enlightened Buddha, was a grateful Buddha, an idea which is perhaps unfamiliar to us...one of the first things the Buddha did after his attainment was to show gratitude to those who had helped him. He was even grateful to a tree."  Sangharaskshita

A Scottish sangha weekend exploring the theme of katannuta (gratitude for the many benefits we receive).  How do we open to the many ways we are supported, and cared for, especially in the midst of the ongoing crisis we are all navigating? 

A weekend composed of meditation, talks, reflections, and ritual online, supporting Dhanakosa.  Please join us! Open to all.

Paying for your retreat

Dhanakosa runs on donations

Dhanakosa does not charge for retreats.  Instead, we ask people to make a donation towards the ongoing cost of running the centre, for everyone.  This recognises that everyone’s financial circumstances are different.  It’s a genuine donation but our suggested donations may serve as a guide.  You are free to decide how much to give.  And we don’t want our doors to be closed to the less well off.

The donations we collect from you on your retreat pay for future retreats.  You are “paying it forward”.  And the retreatants of the future will heartily appreciate your generosity.
