Question 1

Where is The Heart of Mindfulness silent retreat held?

Accepted Answer

It takes place at Drala Mountain Center in Red Feather Lakes, Colorado, a mountain retreat center that also hosts retreats at its Great Stupa. The organizer's page I reviewed doesn't describe lodging, meals or room types for this retreat, so check the registration page for those details before booking.

Question 2

What does "silent" mean on this retreat? Will I be able to talk at all?

Accepted Answer

The retreat is billed as a silent meditation retreat, but the material available doesn't spell out the rules, such as silent meals, phone use, or when speaking is allowed. Look at the retreat's registration page or contact Drala Mountain Center for the exact guidelines before you commit.

Question 3

Do I need to be Buddhist to attend?

Accepted Answer

Drala sorts its programs into categories including "Buddhist Path" and "Meditation & Mindfulness," and this retreat's title points to the mindfulness side. The center's page doesn't state any belief requirement for this retreat. If you want to know how much Buddhist teaching or ritual is included, ask the center directly.

Question 4

How can I prepare if I haven't done much sitting practice?

Accepted Answer

Drala runs a Foundations of Meditation series, with "Establishing the Ground" (I) and "Deepening the Path" (II), plus a free online Drala Mountain Online Practice Series. These are separate programs listed with multiple dates. The material doesn't say whether they are prerequisites for this retreat, so confirm with the center if you're unsure.

Question 5

Can I join The Heart of Mindfulness online instead of in person?

Accepted Answer

Drala offers online and hybrid programs, but they are labeled as such in its retreat listings, such as the hybrid weekend with Adam Kane. This retreat is listed at the Red Feather Lakes center, and the material doesn't mention a remote option. Check the retreat's page or ask the center if you need one.

Question 6

How do I register and find out the cost?

Accepted Answer

Registration goes through Drala Mountain Center's website, dralamountain.org, where the retreat is listed among its meditation and mindfulness offerings. The page I reviewed doesn't show pricing or accommodation tiers, so you'll need to open the retreat's own listing for the current rates.
