DURANGO DHARMA CENTER

We are very pleased to announce that our own Erin Treat has been invited to participate in the upcoming Spirit Rock/Insight Meditation Society teacher training.

The four-year teacher training incorporates systematic study of Buddhist texts, extensive training in meditation practices and techniques, study of the Buddhist lineage and history, and teacher role studies. It also includes many hours of practice interviews and assisting at several retreats and classes as preparation for assuming full teacher status. Students having completed the training are authorized to lead classes and retreats both locally and nationwide.

While the next training group won't start until early 2013, Erin will begin by being an assistant teacher for the February 2012 month-long retreat at Spirit Rock.
