Walking Each Other HomeWisdom, Faith, and Science on the Journey of Dying
How can spiritual practice guide us through the dying process, both as caregivers and as companions?
This October, Serenity Ridge welcomes spiritual teachers and healthcare practitioners from Buddhist and Christian traditions for a five-day retreat exploring the mystery of death and dying. Together, we’ll share practices, insights, and wisdom to support the journey of consciousness beyond death.
What You’ll Experience
Dialogues with international experts on end-of-life spiritual care, advanced meditation after death (tukdam), and the rainbow body—the dissolution of the physical body at death.
Practical tools and practices to help you navigate the dying process with clarity, awareness, and peace.
Who Should Attend
This retreat is open to everyone, whether you’re preparing for your own transition, supporting a loved one, or simply curious about the death and dying process.
An Opportunity to Deepen Your Journey
For a deeper journey, consider pairing this retreat with the 5-day silent Dzogchen meditation retreat immediately preceding it—an ideal preparation for heart and mind.
We offer free lodging on Sunday and Monday nights, between the end of the silent retreat and the start of the Serenity Ridge Dialogues as well as breakfast on those days at no charge if you register for both events.
