About This Event

Description

Questo ritiro di meditazione di sei giorni, Calmo dimorare, vacuità e bodhicitta, si tiene all'Istituto Lama Tzong Khapa di Pomaia, in Toscana, nella tradizione del buddhismo tibetano Gelug. È guidato dal Ven. Sonam Wangchuk ed è pensato per chi ha già una base di pratica meditativa e vuole approfondire tre temi centrali del sentiero: lo shamatha (calmo dimorare), la vacuità e la bodhicitta.

Come si svolge

Il ritiro si apre il primo giorno, dalle 6:00 PM alle 7:30 PM, con le presentazioni dei partecipanti e l'orientamento. Dal secondo al sesto giorno la giornata segue un ritmo regolare: meditazione mattutina dalle 6:00 AM alle 8:20 AM, sessioni dalle 10:00 AM alle 12:30 PM e, tranne l'ultimo giorno, sessioni pomeridiane dalle 3:00 PM alle 7:30 PM. L'ultimo giorno si conclude alle 12:30 PM, dopo la sessione del mattino.

Ogni tema occupa due giorni. Si comincia con lo shamatha, per sviluppare un'attenzione stabile e chiara. Poi si esplora la vacuità, cioè l'assenza di esistenza intrinseca e indipendente. Infine si coltiva la bodhicitta, la motivazione a raggiungere l'illuminazione per il bene di tutti gli esseri, con un'introduzione all'impegno del bodhisattva e alla condotta etica. Le sessioni di meditazione si alternano a momenti di riflessione, e ogni giorno c'è uno spazio di discussione di gruppo con l'insegnante sugli effetti e sulle difficoltà della pratica.

Il luogo

Il ritiro si svolge nella sala di meditazione e negli spazi di pratica dell'istituto. I pasti vegetariani a pensione completa si prenotano all'iscrizione e si saldano all'arrivo; sono disponibili anche opzioni vegane. L'alloggio si prenota a parte e al momento non risulta disponibile.

Prima di partire

È richiesta esperienza di meditazione pregressa: il ritiro non è adatto a chi inizia. L'insegnamento è in italiano e in inglese, e i posti arrivano fino a 140 partecipanti. Il viaggio e i materiali stampati non sono inclusi, così come i pasti non prenotati all'iscrizione.

Common Questions

FAQs

Calm abiding (shamatha) is the meditative stability of a settled, focused mind. Emptiness (vacuità) is the Buddhist view of how things actually exist, without inherent independent existence. Bodhicitta is the altruistic aspiration to attain enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. Together they form a core sequence in the Tibetan Mahayana path as taught in the Gelug tradition.
Istituto Lama Tzong Khapa is a Buddhist centre in Pomaia, in the Tuscan province of Pisa, affiliated with the FPMT (Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition). It hosts teachings and retreats on the Gelug tradition, which follows the lineage of Lama Tsongkhapa, the institute's namesake. The setting is a residential centre in the Tuscan countryside, suited to extended study and meditation.
Calm abiding, emptiness and bodhicitta are topics that build on each other, and emptiness in particular can be demanding. Some familiarity with basic Buddhist ideas such as karma, rebirth and the Four Noble Truths will help. If you are completely new, it is worth contacting the institute beforehand to ask whether the level suits you.
The event title is in Italian, and the institute mainly operates in Italian, often with translation when a visiting teacher speaks another language. The exact teaching language and any interpretation options are not stated in the material I have. Check the event listing or ask the institute directly before booking.
