movements, as well as Deep Relaxation, a Dharma Talk and Dharma Sharing from
the four-fold Sangha.  We will also enjoy a traditional Vietnamese lunch
lovingly prepared by the monastic and lay Sanghas.*  Additionally, there
will be an opportunity for those who wish to formally take the 5 Mindfulness
Trainings to do so at the end of the day.  *You are welcome to join us for
dinner afterwards.

Please arrive before 8:00 A.M. so you can help the Sangha set up for the
day, relax, and absorb the peaceful beauty of the natural
surroundings.  *Please

activities of the day.  *An opportunity for sharing and mindful conversation
will be provided towards the end of the DOM.
