Pamela Wilson ~ Back to True Nature

Pamela Wilson has been sharing satsang for twenty years around the world, honoring the sage within everyone, and the absolute oneness of All That Is. She evokes through dialogue, inquiry and her very presence the qualities of unconditional love and radical acceptance. She endears herself to her audiences with her playful and light-hearted humor, combined with compassion and deep understanding of what it is to be human. Pamela is celebrated for her ability to open the heart, call forth our own inner sage, and create a space in which long-held struggles and notions about oneÕs identity relax. Featured in the book Ordinary Women, Extraordinary Wisdom, and the author of the forthcoming A Golden RetrieverÕs Guide to Joy, Pamela is at her best in heart-felt dialogue, so please come and bring your questions!

ÒHere we are, benevolent rooted space wearing a remarkably sensitive instrument called the body. Most sages report the body-mind insists on being included and permeated by presence, so it too, can know and live its naturalness. The body is the five elements, already free with no history, though it has born witness to all. As compassion we will be instantly aware of any suffering and answer its call; as stillness we will be aware of remaining restlessness. To be with what is in the moment, this is our function and is at the heart of all longing. Join with your fellow sages in satsang, sharing what you are noticing is an act of love.Ó

This special daylong intensive will take place outside on private property on Oak Manor Dive in Fairfax, on 50 acres of ridgetop land, with beautiful views of Mount Tam and the surrounding area, and with trails for walking. We hope to offer more retreats in the future on this land, as the grounds and buildings are developed, so this is also an opportunity for a preview of what will hopefully be an occasional retreat space for Open Circle events. Please note, we will be sitting outside, in the shade, and there is a 10 minute gentle uphill walk to the meeting site.

A light organic vegetarian lunch will be provided, or you may bring your own food, or head out for lunch to the Good Earth Natural Foods or a number of local restaurants.

Pre-registration is required, as space is limited to 30 people.

For more information or to register, email Rob Schwartz at robmschwartz@yahoo.com

The exact street address will be provided upon registration.

Suggested Donation: $45-120

No one turned away for lack of funds.
