SUMMARY:Naturally Awake Retreat-a direct path to reclaiming your true nature\, with guest teacher Marc Anderson
DESCRIPTION:All wisdom traditions point to the same truth. Peace and cooperation are found byunderstanding the nature of reality\, our naturally awake state of being. Most suffering stemsfrom a felt sense of separation. We self-identify with the content of life\, our thoughts andperceptions\, and ignore or remain unaware of the context of life\, which is a constant flow ofeffortless awareness shared by all beings. \n\n\n\nWhether you are an experienced meditator or an interested novice\, this retreat goes beyondmindfulness to the heart of meditation\, abiding peace and joy. Together we’ll explore ways toreturn to and rest in the naturally awakened state. This will include direct path teachings fromZen\, Tibetan Buddhism\, Vedanta\, Christianity and neuroscience. \n\n\n\nThe format is simple and user-friendly. Mornings – silent and guided meditations. Afternoons –group discussion. Evenings will include sound bath and fireside star gazing meditations. Allmeals are served cafeteria style. The schedule allows for ample rest and free time.

She participated in zuise at Eiheiji on January 11\, 2023 and at Sojiji on January 14\, 2023. \n\n\n\nShe trained at Clouds in Water Zen Center\, Hokyoji Zen Practice Community\, Sanshin Zen Community\, Tassajara Zen Monastery\, and Toshoji International Zen Monastery. \n\n\n\nIn February 2022 she completed a year-long study of Engaged Buddhism at Upaya Zen Center. She has participated in Bearing Witness Retreats at Wounded Knee\, SD and Auschwitz/Birkenau and a street retreat in San Francisco.   \n\n\n\nIn 2016\, she coordinated an interfaith Bearing Witness Retreat led by Indigenous Nations. In 2019\, she coordinated the Winyan Awanyankapi: Protecting the Lifegivers conference. This conference was Indigenous led with white allies offering logistical support. \n\n\n\nKennedy has worked as a social worker for over 30 years with children and families and has an MA in counseling psychology. \n\n\n\nShe is committed to beneficial actions on behalf of all beings. This emerges from her relationship with Indigenous peoples around climate and racial justice issues.  Also\, she is committed to supporting the next generation of dharma practitioners and continuing to deepen our connection with our Japanese dharma relatives. \n\n\n\nRev. Genjo Sam Conway was ordained by his teacher Byakuren Roshi Judith Ragir in September 2016 at Clouds in Water Zen Center in St. Paul\, MN. He completed his shuso ceremony at Hokyoji Zen Practice Community in September 2021. Genjo has participated in and supported retreats at Clouds in Water\, Hokyoji\, Sanshiji\, and Ryumonji. He is deeply committed to integrating traditional Soto Zen practice into contemporary American life\, especially working with the karma of white convert Buddhists within white supremacy and with settler Buddhists on Indigenous land. \n\n\n\nGenjo works as a psychotherapist\, predominately with clients struggling with opioid and meth addiction alongside their emotional and psychological difficulties. He believes strongly\, following Byakuren Roshi’s teaching\, that American Buddhism is in deep need of integrating the psychological with the spiritual. \n\n\n\nAn avid mushroom hunter\, swimmer\, and cook\, Genjo lives in South Minneapolis on occupied land traditional to the Dakota People with his three children\, loving partner\, adorable dog\, and many\, many plants.
