Dear friends of Bodhi Berlin,

Quote of the Week
'One day Ajahn Chah held up a beautiful Chinese tea cup, "To me this cup is already broken. Because I know its fate, I can enjoy it fully here and now. And when it’s gone, it’s gone." When we understand the truth of uncertainty and relax, we become free.'
—Jack Kornfield, The Wise Heart, p. 371

Silent Meditation Retreat April 27th 2025
The next Bodhi Berlin daylong silent meditation retreat will take place on Sunday, the 27th of April, 2025 from 10:00–17:00 at Hessische Str. 12, 10115 Berlin.
We have space for 12 retreatants total. If you would like to attend, please do the following:
- Send an e-mail to info@bodhiberlin.org letting us know that you plan to attend.
- Transfer 15.00 € to us per participant so that we can cover the cost of the rent for the space. Please make sure that you mention in your transfer that you are transferring the retreat fee.
- The easiest way to transfer the money is to use the PayPal link on our support page.
- If you prefer to make your deposit via bank transfer, please mention this in your e-mail so that we can send you the IBAN.
When we have received your e-mail and your deposit, we will add you to the list of participants. If the 12 spots are already filled, you will be added to the waiting list and if a space does not free up, we will refund your deposit.
If you have registered and for some reason cannot attend, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can offer your place to someone on the waiting list. Those who notify us at least forty-eight hours before the retreat will be able to receive a refund of your deposit.
As mentioned in previous newsletters, we have rescheduled the April retreat from Sunday, April 6th to Sunday, April 27th due to a miscommunication on our parts. If you have already signed up for the retreat, let us know whether you are still able to attend. If you are no longer able to attend because of the date change, we will of course refund the retreat deposit. We apologize for any inconvenience or unpleasantness that has arisen as a result of this change.
Further information, updates, and resources can be found on our website: https://bodhiberlin.org/
We look forward to seeing you soon!
Henrik, Jeff, & Josh
