Schedule for Don Oakley's Upcoming Spiritual and Meditation Events
ONLINE MEETINGS
Don Oakley offers online meetings on the first and third Tuesday of each month
"We may get into spirituality for personal reasons: "I just want to find some peace" or "I want to quiet my busy mind." And that's fine. But as it is explored more deeply, one day we might find that it isn't necessarily about what we want. Something more, far more, is being asked of us. We discover that we are being asked (nicely at first) to surrender to life."

​​Retreat Overview​
"We can seek for a long time, experience high spiritual states, and
adopt interesting metaphysical concepts, but still not awaken to our True Nature. We return again and again to our “ordinary life.” We may settle for memories of past peak moments or become discouraged and doubt even the possibility of awakening. But if we continue to seek where it cannot be found, we will seek for a very long time. This weekend retreat will be a direct path opportunity to encounter what has always been present - patiently waiting for you to notice."

​​Retreat Overview​
"We are all familiar with that sense of peace when everything is to our liking. But is there also a peace that’s not subject to life’s inevitable ups and downs—a peace that surpasses our human understanding of how things work? If so, what is keeping us from experiencing that peace in this and every moment?"
