Past Retreats

The Contemplative Society is devoted to maintaining an archive of our past events to document the history of the Widsom tradition and its development

Since our founding in 1997, TCS has been bringing people together through meaningful retreats and community gatherings. This archive is our effort to preserve and share the history of those events.

We are currently in the process of recovering past retreat details, photos, and materials from the Wayback Machine and our own archives. As this is an ongoing project, new content will continue to be added over time. Thank you for your patience as we work to build a complete record of our shared journey.

ReLearning Trust

To our usual psychological way of looking at things, trust must be earned; it is called forth in response to demonstrated trustworthiness. But there is another way of approaching trust, which has always been the way of the great saints and mystics.
