Join Dr. Larry Ward and Joe Reilly for an ecodharma retreat that weaves together indigenous wisdom and the teachings of the Earth Holder Bodhisattva, Dharanimdhara, of the Lotus Sutra.

At the Seven Oaks Retreat Center, nestled among the pines and rolling foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, we will explore our deep interconnectedness with each other and the Earth. Together, we'll co-create a space for meditation, music, Dharma talks, indigenous teachings and outdoor practices.

Thanks to the generous support of the BESS Family Foundation—an organization that has helped grow our programs, including Midnight Path—this retreat is offered at a heavily reduced rate to ensure accessibility. Space is limited. If this program's theme resonates with you, we encourage you to apply as soon as possible.
