NOTE: This is not a Zen Retreat
ONLINE RETREAT
Join Zenju Earthlyn Manuel, for a weekend on midwifing darkness and blackness in these times. If destruction is at hand, the protectors of the world, the dark mothers, the messengers will step in and midwife what is coming to assist us and help destroy what isn’t. We can’t know what is coming so we don’t know what to destroy beforehand. If we kill something of darkness before we see or know it, we might eliminate, pre-maturely, something sent to assist us.
Together in this retreat you will be offered various blessings of protection and meditations created by Zenju Osho. You also will have the opportunity to open your heart to darkness through eight gateways using the dark mothers as protectors:
First Gateway – Opening to Darkness
Second Gateway – Dwelling In Darkness
Third Gateway – Childhood Fear of Darkness
Fourth Gateway – Sensing The Truth of Darkness
Fifth Gateway – Understanding “Evil” and Darkness
Sixth Gateway – Darkness As Light
Seventh Gateway –Being Messengers of Darkness
Eighth Gateway – Celebrating the Darkness of Death
