Off To Hawaii!
By Leo Gura - February 8, 2018
I’m about to start my second solo meditation retreat. This one’s taking place on the Big Island of Hawaii, Hilo side. I booked a secluded cabin in the middle of the jungle near the volcano. It’s on 20 acres of dense forest, filled with old Ohia trees and fruits trees like lechi, guava, bananas, and avocados. I’ll be meditating outdoors on the 2nd floor deck. That is, if the mosquitoes let me.
(These aren’t actual images, but similar to where I’ll be staying.)
Can’t wait to get out there and meditate my ass off. It will be 8 grueling days of nonstop meditation and self-inquiry.
As I did with my Arizona solo retreat, I will do some filming outdoors and nightly debriefs with lessons learned. I’ll post those a week or two after I return.
I feel more confident and prepared for this second retreat. In the last month my gains in consciousness from 3 deep psychedelic trips have been remarkable, and my new yoga practice is showing lots of promise. My mind has become quieter, my concentration ability has improved, and my inquiry process has honed-in. Now is the time for everything to come together into a major breakthrough.
I’ll let you know how it goes.
P.S. I have 3 more solo retreats planned for 2018. One more in Hawaii, one in the jungles of Costa Rica, and one probably in the piney forests around Seattle or maybe Oregon. I also have many psychedelic trips planned. All of it should produce a big transformation in my consciousness in 2018. At least that’s the plan. You never know how things will unfold. One thing I hope you take away from my retreats is that this non-seeking advice you hear from certain corners of the spiritual field is total horseshit. You should work like a mule for your enlightenment, the way all serious spiritual masters did.
P.P.S. Weekly videos and blog posts will still be released. The hopper is loaded, so stay tuned.
