Love without suffering

- Attend the course at the Centre
Our relationships with our loved ones, family, friends, and partners are important to us but not always easy. Why does it seem that loving is sometimes so complicated?
During this retreat, we will contemplate and meditate on teachings that help distinguish between pure love, which brings happiness, and attachment, the source of expectations, worry, and many problems.
We will also explore how to cultivate wisdom that allows us to differentiate between the fear of causing harm and the fear of conflicts, helping us move beyond guilt.
Everyone is welcome!
