Vallecitos Workshop Retreat
June 2007
The annual week-long Retreat at Vallecitos Mountain Refuge has become the center of Stephen Karcher’s calendar: “In over 30 years of teaching, I have never found a place or group more truly magical and transformative than this one”.
The Retreat aims at creating a deep dialogue with the Classic of Change through intensive study, ritual and meditative work grounded in an on-going group process. Participants are provided with the latest translations and study material, individual attention from a world-famous teacher and scholar and the support of a compassionate and caring community.
“In the many long hours and intensity of Stephen's teachings at Vallecitos, I discovered that indeed the Yi is a "living" oracle that reveals itself with greater depth and power than I thought possible. I left the retreat with tools to unfold the deepest layers of the oracular response, giving me greater confidence to benefit myself and others. Incredible.”
“This truly transformative experience in the idyllic setting of an 'enchanted forest' opened the world of the Great Symbols to me. I immersed myself in the beauty that is Vallecitos, became a member of a cherished community of friends and scholars and enriched my dialogue with the shen ming, the ‘clear and loving spirit’ that is the heart and soul of Yijing’s ancient tradition.”
This is a unique and popular course in beautiful surroundings, so if you are interested you need to get your name down soon. More details here.
