Recollections of Retreat 1999

Everyone has sides in them that are dead

It is not necessary that we need to be completely alive or completely dead. Each of us may have sides that are dead.

We do not know us. We look at us in the morning in the mirror and who do we see? Is that the real YOU? We see who we want to see and not who we really are. Self is a stranger to all of us. It is a mystery. A retreat provides us the opportunity to look at us and really SEE us.

We all have limitations we are not aware of. For example many of us may have diseases we may not be aware of such as a blocked artery or a cancerous growth. We can continue to live many years, very often, before this becomes serious enough that we will discover it. Often, the doctors can examine us with machines such as MRI and discover hidden diseases before we are aware of it. Till it is discovered, we may think we are healthy; although we really are sick.

The same applies to the soul.
