We have numerous resources to support your practice of dependent origination:
The PDF files linked below are the daily suggestions we put up during our retreats. They are listed in the order that we would likely post them on the noticeboard. We hope they will be helpful, both for people wishing to be reminded of their retreat experience, or for those looking to connect with meditation for the first time.
Below we have a range of suggestions that can be used to develop connection while being relatively still. These are fully suited to try out on your own, but do be aware that meditation is often most easily accessed in a group
setting. For greater support look for meditation retreats or groups in your area. Meditation groups are often called sitting groups (even though you don't have to be sitting to meditate) and they usually meet once a week
in order to practice together.
If you have any difficulty with any of the practices please don't despair, it isn't easy. Slowly, slowly we can only get better. Be aware of what you are doing; because
you are going to get good at it
