Mudita: The Dance of the Heart (People of Colour) 2025

13 - 15 Jun 2025
Led By: Amaragita, Jayasuri

Out beyond ideas of
wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field.
I’ll meet you there
when the soul lies on the grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase ‘each other ‘ doesn’t make sense.’
– Rumi

Rumi’s poem exemplifies appreciative joy (Mudita) an aspect of Metta.

The Dance of the Heart weekend retreat is an invitation to explore the liberation, connection, delight of Mudita and the challenges in developing this Brahma vihara (sublime abode).

The retreat will look at creating various ways for mudita to arise. From Buddhist meditations practices, such as the Mudita bhavana to talks, workshops, pujas, and the opportunity of free time, taking the space to ‘lie’ with our hearts and just to be…

Please note that during this retreat a new office will be being built (on the opposite side of the carpark to the retreat centre). There will be some noise.

Paying for your retreat

Taraloka runs on generosity.

To book a retreat you pay a booking fee. This is the only charge made for coming on retreat. As far as possible, we don’t want anyone’s financial situation to stop them from coming to Taraloka.

At the end of your retreat, you have the opportunity to give money towards Taraloka. If you are able to donate, you are giving to another person who otherwise could not afford to come on retreat. And you are helping to give the gift of Taraloka to the women of the future.

We have suggested donations as these reflect the basic income needed to make a retreat viable. However, they are only suggestions. It is genuinely fine to give ten times these amounts, nothing, or anything in between.

Running on generosity is radical – thank you for being part of that.
