SUMMARY:Arising Freely in Awareness
DESCRIPTION:Annual Time Space Knowledge Retreat Europe by Jack Petranker\n \nSept 16 – 21\nNeu Plaue Retreat Center, Germany\nBased on the book Knowledge of Time & Space by Tibetan Lama Tarthang Tulku.\nThe retreat is held in the beautiful Neu Plaue Retreat Center in Germany. It is in person only.\nThis retreat is a co-production of Nyingma Centrum Nederland, Neu Plaue Retreat Center and Center for Creative Inquiry, Berkeley, California.\nDescription:\nWe place the self and present experience at the center of what is real. Could there be another way of knowing and being that returns time to the center, that touches the body of time directly? Could there be a way for fuller awareness to know time anew?\nTarthang Tulku, Knowledge of Time and Space\nThe body of time is the truth of our lives, yet when we look closely, we realize that time is deeply mysterious. Not understanding time, means not understanding who we are and what we could become.\nIn the ‘feel’ of open space . . . the mind can enjoy more beauty, accepting\na standing invitation to ‘enter’ a different realm in which there is nothing\nfor the mind to do. Within the ‘feel’, the display of personality becomes\nthe play of freely manifesting patterns.\nSpace is the realm of appearance, where beauty manifests and meaning takes form. When we turn into space into the empty container for what exists, we turn our back on our own power and joy.\nWithin the realm of symbols and meanings, the fundamental symbol is the self . . . Tied to the projects and projections of the self, the world appears fully as world: an intricate structure too subtle to be fully apprehended . . . In inescapable intimacy, self and world take form together, shaping a way of being and giving content to what is.\nInstructor: Jack Petranker\nJack Petranker is Director of Mangalam Research Center, and former Dean of the Tibetan Nyingma Institute in Berkeley. A direct student of Tarthang Tulku since 1980, Jack holds degrees from Stanford, Yale, and University of California, Berkeley. He is author of When It Rains, Does Space Get Wet? and the editor of many books in the TSK series.\nPractical Information\nTime: Tuesday, September 16 – Sunday, September 21, 2025\nPlace: Neu Plaue Retreat Center, Germany\nLanguage: The retreat will be conducted in English.\n\n\n\nCosts:\n\n\n\n\n€ 495,- including on-site lodging in shared rooms with shared bathrooms (12 places available);\n€ 595,- including lodging in single rooms in guesthouses nearby, and shared transportation to and from the retreat facility.\n\nPrices include all meals.\n
