This is the seventh in an annual monthly series of ten online daylongs offered by Refuge of Belonging, a dharma community rooted in presence and open to all. The retreat is held from 10:00AM - 4:00PM Pacific and 1:00PM - 7:00PM Eastern

“In a world full of half-truths and convenient lies, what does it mean to live with radical honesty?

Sacca parami—truthfulness—begins with the willingness to see clearly: to acknowledge what's actually happening in your life, in your heart, in your relationships. This kind of truth-telling requires tremendous courage because it often means facing what we'd rather avoid.

But here's the paradox: the truth that initially feels so threatening is ultimately what sets us free. When we stop hiding from reality, we can finally respond to it skillfully.

What We’ll Explore Together

In this one-day online retreat, Aishah & nico will explore sacca parami in depth—the courage required for radical honesty and authentic living.

The day will begin with an hour of conversation and an opening talk around the theme. We'll then sit and walk for four hours in lightly guided practice, before reconvening for a closing talk and further dialogue.”
