Description

Our annual opportunity to come together as the Buddhafield Sangha and welcome others in, to celebrate the strengths and riches we all share. There will be talks, discussion groups, pujas and plenty of time to enjoy the glorious Dartmoor countryside. A chance to further explore the theme of the festival, “Fire in the heart” , to look more deeply within and touch the fires of inspiration and our deeper passions that light us up with joy when we truly open our hearts.

Loving kindness is not a weak or ordinary emotion, it can be radical in its ability to transform the way we see the world, relate to ourselves and one another. Let’s immerse ourselves in the cauldron of universal love, to explore Metta, loving kindness, in its ever more subtle forms, through compassion, sympathetic joy and equanimity (known as the Brahma Viharas).

We invite all who have given of their time and energy to Buddhafield over the years to experience the bliss of being on retreat, away from the busy and stressful world we so often inhabit
