Ozarks Dharma Community

We will be having a day-long retreat at the lovely LittlePortion Retreat Center in Republic on Sunday, Oct. 13th, 9am-4pm. After a short meditation sitting and a Dharma talk and discussion, the rest of the day will be spent in self-paced practice of sitting and walking meditation, inside or outside, whatever you prefer. Bring your own lunch, a refrigerator and microwave are available for our use. Bring your own cushions, benches, and/or blankets if you can, but there will be a few cushions available, as well as folding chairs for those who need one.

If anyone has any Dharma books that they would like to give for our outreach table, please bring them to the park so we can give them away to anyone that's interested in Buddhism and meditation. We hope you, your family and friends can attend!
