In this daylong, we explore how awareness grows through interest, continuity, and the right attitude. We learn how small moments of knowing add up, and how the mind slowly becomes more familiar with itself. When awareness becomes natural, the practice feels lighter and more stable.
This day supports anyone who wants to deepen their understanding and build a long-term, sustainable practice.
You are invited to explore how awareness can become a natural companion in your life.

Generosity/Dana
This is a dana retreat. The practice of giving donations/dana helps continue the ancient Buddhist monastic tradition of teaching on a dana basis – dana being the Pali word for generosity or giving freely.
Your contributions help teachers to lead a life devoted to teaching both at InsightLA and in other parts of the world, including communities without the means to donate. Your gifts also allow teachers to take time for their own practice, ensuring that their teachings are continuously enriched.
Suggested Donation: $85
