About the Meetings
There is no religious affiliation connected to the meetings or to Eckhart’s teachings. The purpose of these meetings is to explore Eckhart’s work through videos of his talks and retreats — in meditation, in silence, and through dialogue.
Meetings are free of charge. They are held every few months, usually on the last Sunday of the month, near High Falls, New York, (between New Paltz and Kingston) from 2:00 to 4:00 pm.
Video Meetings
We arrive, sit, and leave in silence, as recommended by Eckhart. We encourage participants to keep silence as long as practical after the meeting concludes. After people who want to leave in silence have left, there is usually a one-hour discussion period for those who wish to talk about the video or teaching in general, or ask questions.
Weekend Retreats
We periodically offer weekend retreats, which are structured in a similar way to retreats with Eckhart. The schedule includes two videos each day, periods of silence, dialogue, body- and energy-sensing, vegetarian meals, meditation, conversation, walks in nature, etc.
