</strong></p>
<p>People tend to think of meditation when they think of Buddhism, and well they should.  But in our tradition we actually practice something far more comprehensive:  ethical conduct, meditation, and wisdom.  These three great pillars of practice encompass every imaginable aspect of life.  In this retreat we will explore in depth how our meditation relates to the rest of our noble path.</p>
