Discovering Unity Seven Day Retreat
May 14 – 21, 2016
Learn more about what discovering unity means during this week-long retreat course
Course Description
The course begins on Saturday evening with supper followed by an introductory talk and conversation. Sunday is a day of preparation, largely spent in silent retreat. The rest of the week follows a regular programme of study, conversation, work, meditation and devotional practice.
During study you will explore in greater depth themes that are introduced during the weekend and seven-week Discovering Unity courses. This week-long course is thus especially suitable for people who have experience of either of these courses. However, anyone who wants to learn more about themselves and the world can benefit from this week. It is also a good opportunity to get a better understanding of what the longer six-month course at the Chisholme Institute involves.
A complementary week retreat is scheduled for August, which will explore the theme of ‘Service’ within the context of self-knowledge and unity.
Accommodation & Timing
The course is fully residential. More about student facilities at Chisholme . It starts at supper time (7pm) on Saturday evening and runs until the following Saturday after lunch (about 2pm).
The location is Chisholme House, a beautiful, secluded estate on the edge of open moorland, deep in the hills of the Scottish Borders. It is roughly an hour’s drive from Edinburgh, Newcastle and Carlisle, with a regular bus service from Edinburgh and Carlisle to Hawick, the nearest town. Directions to Chisholme
