    Thank you Chloe and Ivan for your interest and suggestions.

    Ivan, The Teaching Retreats recordings look great and thank you for the link. Now i have the excellent dharma talks ready to go for 10 days !

    Would you mind giving me a rough outline of a days timetable that you use on your TMI retreats that i can aspire to?
    Interested in how to get the walking meditations happening in an integrated way.

    Then I prepare a nutritious menu and line the food stores up and will be ready to go.

    Maybe one day i will join you in Tucson for a retreat!

    Hello Black Ghost

    No advice, too early in my practice yet, but loving kindness coming your way.

    Struggling with the some of the same frustrations and appreciate your explicit descriptions.

    Thinking feels at the time of thinking more solid and real than the state of awareness and yet it proves to be the more ephemeral. What is thinking? What is happening when i am thinking? Why do i think?

    Ok, will make sure to check that out.

    A logistics question. You sent a message regarding teachers which was helpful but when I came into the forum to reply to it it wasn’t there.Is it somewhere else in the forum?

    Kind regards Bernadette

    Dear Ivan,

    That is a very clear description and differentiates the two “spaces” and how thought moves through them and in what sequence. Thank you. I can work with that now on the cushion this evening and in coming days.

    Thank you for the heads up regarding the audio archives. I have been listening to the recordings steadily over the past weeks now in time order and will focus in especially on the teaching retreats as you suggest.

    Kind regards Bernadette

    Goal setting right now involves a choice from “everything” How to narrow it down is my question.

    It seems to me that attempting focussing on the detail of the breath and on peripheral awareness requires a constant shifting which therefore doesn’t feel stable.

    Your thoughts on this?

    Hello Ivan,

    I hope this finds you well where you are.

    Does a time come through practice that thinking occurs in an aware space and not in the rarefied atmosphere of seemingly only being the thinking event?
