Silent Retreat in Salt Lake City, Utah
Two Wings, One Bird
Facilitating Teachers
Tim Slocum & Sam Akers
Offered by Northern Utah Insight. Just as a bird needs two wings to fly, the Buddhist journey soars on the two wings of wisdom and compassion. The Buddha offered wisdom practices that cultivate deep and transformative insight into the nature of suffering and release from suffering; he also taught compassion practices that cultivate care about the suffering of the world and supports the sure heart's release. Together, these two mutually supportive wings of the Dharma can lift us to an open hearted freedom to flourish in all aspects of our lives.
Registration opens June 22, 2026. There will be a lottery and SLC folks will be offered first spots. For more information and to register visit NUI HERE
