Drala Meditation Hike: Ramona Falls
Sat July 14th: 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM In Room(s): Off Site "...... if we open our eyes, if we open our minds, if we open our hearts, we will find that this world is a magical place. It is magical not because it tricks us or changes unexpectedly into something else, but because it can be so vividly and brilliantly."
- Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche.
Join us for a Drala Hike near Mt Hood to glorious Ramona Falls. We will combine hiking with meditation and will be observing noble silence.
