SUMMARY:Innermost Awareness - Weekend Retreat in Malmö
DESCRIPTION:Innermost Awareness \n\n\n\nWeekend Retreat in Malmö21–22 March | 10:00–17:00Contribution: 1200 SEKSign up through payment:https://www.stephanpende.com/donation/ \n\n\n\n⸻ \n\n\n\nIt seems to me that all the mystic paths point toward the same recognition. \n\n\n\nNot a belief.Not a new identity.Not a better version of “me.” \n\n\n\nBut an experience beyond words — and strangely\, available right now. \n\n\n\nI like to call it Innermost Awareness. \n\n\n\nFor me\, it’s what the “I” really is underneath all the noise:a quiet warmth that can hold everything — thoughts\, grief\, joy\, shame\, longing — without needing to fix any of it first. \n\n\n\nThis weekend is an invitation into that recognition. \n\n\n\nNot through discussion or philosophy.Through practice and silence. \n\n\n\n⸻ \n\n\n\nWhat we explore \n\n\n\nWhat if the real gift of a spiritual path isn’t becoming better…but discovering a refuge that can’t be taken away? \n\n\n\nNot a refuge that depends on your mood\, your relationship status\, your nervous system behaving nicely\, or life being kind.But something you can return to — even when the ground shakes. \n\n\n\nIn the Tantric view awakening isn’t somewhere else.The doorway is this life. This body. This moment. \n\n\n\nAcross traditions\, three “doors” appear again and again. We’ll explore them as lived experience:• Truth — the simple reality of the present moment• Love — warmth\, kindness\, connection• Awareness — the silent wakefulness behind all experience \n\n\n\nIn Buddhist language\, you might hear echoes of Buddha / Dharma / Sangha.In Sanskrit: sat (truth)\, ananda (love/bliss)\, chit (awareness). \n\n\n\nBut this weekend isn’t about ideas.It’s about direct experience. \n\n\n\n⸻ \n\n\n\nThe Practice• Guided sitting meditation (resting rather than forcing)• Simple mindful movements to arrive in the body• Gentle inquiry into: Who am I—when I stop performing myself?• Relational warmth within a quiet\, respectful container• Time for silence and integration \n\n\n\nThe intention is not to chase peak experiences\,but to soften heart and mind enough that grace can reveal the truth of your being in its own way. \n\n\n\n⸻ \n\n\n\nPractical Information \n\n\n\nTime:Saturday 21 March\, 10:00–17:00Sunday 22 March\, 10:00–17:00 \n\n\n\nPlace:Vitemöllegatan 16C\, SE-214 44 Malmö\, Sverige \n\n\n\nContribution:1200 SEKSign up through payment:https://www.stephanpende.com/donation/ \n\n\n\nLunch break around 13:00 (about one hour).There is a kitchen with microwave and refrigerator. You can bring your own food or buy something nearby. \n\n\n\nIt is possible to join for only one day. \n\n\n\nWhat to bringComfortable clothes.Meditation cushion or yoga mat (if you have one). \n\n\n\n⸻ \n\n\n\nFor whom \n\n\n\nBeginners are welcome.Experienced practitioners usually appreciate the simplicity — and the occasional uncomfortable honesty. \n\n\n\n⸻ \n\n\n\nAbout the Teachers \n\n\n\nStephan Pende is a meditation teacher with more than four decades of practice and over 20 years of experience guiding retreats across Europe. He was ordained as a Tibetan Buddhist monk for 11 years and spent many years in intensive retreat. His teaching is simple\, grounded\, and direct—integrating meditation\, gentle inquiry\, and embodied presence\, with a Tantric appreciation of ordinary life as the path. \n\n\n\nAlexander Walter is a dedicated meditation practitioner with over 20 years of experience. He met Stephan about 15 years ago and has followed his guidance ever since. He has explored various traditions and expresses his path through spiritual poetry.https://www.facebook.com/groups/779046808888417 \n\n\n\n⸻ \n\n\n\nIf something in you longs for a quiet\, honest return home — you’re welcome.
