A Weekend ONLINE AT-HOME Retreat

with Shaila Catherine

January 24 – 26, 2025

Do you aspire for awakening? Do you ponder spiritual experiences that have occurred in your practice?

This program will provide an opportunity for meditation practice along with frank and bold discussions on themes of awakening, and spiritual aspirations, experiences, or meditative attainments.

Please join us as we deepen our practice together through a program of live video meetings with Shaila Catherine. The online meetings will include guided meditations, Dharma talks, question and answer sessions, and discussion groups.

Registration is required. Scroll down to choose a ticket level. Registration will close a few days prior to the retreat, so don’t wait to the last minute!

More information and a link to join the zoom video meetings will be emailed to registrants a few days prior to the retreat.

This retreat is appropriate for experienced practitioners.

Registration: Registration is required for this course. Registration fees are non-refundable. To register, select an option under the Tickets heading at the bottom of this page.

Course Fee: The non-refundable registration fee is based on a sliding scale of $700 to $260. The lower end of the sliding scale is intended for those with limited financial means. If you pay at the mid to high range of the sliding scale, your generosity supports those with limited income to attend our programs, and also supports the teacher. Our teacher relies upon the generosity of students for her livelihood, so we encourage you to choose the highest level that is appropriate for your economic situation. Thank you for your generosity! The ticketing process will give you the option of paying by credit card, Pay Pal, or by mailing a check.

Teacher Dana: Donations to support the teacher are much appreciated. Opportunities to give are shown on our Donate page. The Standard, Base, and Scholarship Rates do not include Teacher Dana. You may include teacher dana in your registration fees by choosing a higher ticket option, or you may make a separate donation to teacher dana at the end of the retreat.

Scholarship Assistance: A scholarship rate of a 30% discount is offered for those with financial need; you may use the code less30% to self-select this scholarship. Full scholarships are offered to monastics. For inquiries, contact the registrar at meditate.

Tax Deductions: The basic, standard, and scholarship rates do not include teacher dana and are not tax deductible. By selecting a ticket level above the base rate, you will be contributing to teacher dana and the amount above the base rate will be considered a voluntary tax deductible Teacher Dana contribution.

Cancellation Policy: All fees and payments are non-refundable. If you cancel participation in a course, and the registrar is notified prior to the start of the first meeting, your registration fee will be converted into a voucher creditable towards the fee for either a future IMSB or Bodhi-Retreats program. Vouchers must be used within one year of the initial course start date, and may be transferred to only one future course. Cancellations that occur after the start of the first meeting are not eligible for the voucher credit and are non-refundable.
