Please find attached the registration form. Shamatha, or Shiné in Tibetan, is a meditation designed to calm the mind. By being in contact with our breathing body, focused on a single object, we can let go of external and internal distractions, slow down our thoughts and emotions and let the mind relax. Shama (TIB. Zhi) means 'peace', 'peaceful' and tha (TIB. Gnas-pa) means 'to abide', 'to rest' - so shamatha means 'to abide in calm', 'to abide peacefully'. This is the fundamental practice of Buddhist meditation. However, this practice, which stabilises the mind, is not enough on its own. It must be combined with a meditation called vipashyana, or ‘clear seeing' or 'insight' , in which the mind's alertness is used to distinguish the true nature of phenomena. This practice brings clarity to the mind. It has been said that meditation is like the flame of a candle, which must be both bright and stable in order to shine properly. To achieve results, of course, you need to practise regularly. At first, you may feel that the effect is the opposite of what you expected, but you must not become discouraged. The masters say that it's like when you start training for a sport: you need to persevere, slowly without forcing yourself, to overcome the difficulties you encounter at first, and then discover the pleasure. The weekends devoted to cultivating this ancestral practice are an opportunity to practise with the Lopöns and then continue at home to make it a regular part of your life.
