Buddhist retreat
Temple for contemplation
A Buddhist retreat is a period of withdrawal from daily life for meditation, study, and spiritual practice.
Retreats range from a single day to months or years, held at monasteries, retreat centers, or secluded locations.
Participants typically follow a structured schedule of sitting meditation, walking meditation, and teachings: She's doing a ten-day silent Buddhist retreat in the mountains.
The practice emphasizes stepping back from ordinary concerns to deepen awareness and insight.
