Trillium Sitting (in person, Olympia)
with Margit Bantowsky
Friday, July 8, 4:30 pm - 7:30 am, PDT
Topic: Sound and Soul
A sitting is a gathering where the alchemy of our interconnectedness is uniquely practiced in the Trillium path. They are held in local areas where teachers live or visit and include gazing meditation, discussion relevant to the embodied awakening process, and participant sharing. The intention is to provide a supportive and trustworthy container in which participants are deeply met and seen in all their Infinite Radiance, as well as their very human limitations.

Welcome to the Olympia Trillium Community!
The Trillium path honors and investigates not only the transcendent, but also the physical and the deep relatedness dimensions of the self.
This work offers simple yet potent practices through which we can lean into the spacious and 'divine' aspects of all that we are, even as we explore and embrace the difficult, estranged, and forgotten facets that tend to conceal our greatest gifts. In community, we "walk each other home."

In the company of a growing community of fellow practitioners from Olympia and the Northwest, and with the wider support and transmission from the international Trillium Awakening community, we engage with ourselves and one another through regular local gatherings in a context of mutual encouragement and exploration.

Our circles of practice help keep us focused on awakening to full recognition and acceptance of the challenging truth of being both divine and human—each as our own unique expression of Being. In this place of practice we can unfold in trust as we recognize with ever-expanding awareness the fullness of our authentic, embodied selves. As we become more established in that reality, we naturally become more completely available to ourselves and the world. We welcome your unique, divinely human expression!
