I guess you could call it a pilgrimage. I feel lost anywhere I go, though it’s true the way is always clearly marked: earth cairn, sky cairn, fire cairn, water cairn.

We invite you to join us in June 2021 for a seven-day retreat in a remote high desert canyon—a uniquely beautiful jewel of the Mojave National Preserve. We will establish our camp amidst the family of Pinon, Juniper, Oak, rabbit, deer, hummingbird and snake. Seekers across time and tradition have sought refuge in wild places, where great joy and suffering can bring us to our deepest truths.

During this program you will be guided and supported to quiet the mind and cultivate a sense of stillness and spaciousness. Together, we will drop into deep relationship to our most authentic selves, one another, and the wild landscape around us and within us. Unplugged from the demands of routine and familiar surroundings, Clear Desert Mirror will support restorative contemplation and inspire transformation, for the benefit of all beings.

Each day will include several periods of silent meditation, teachings to help us open to our innate wisdom and compassion, time on the land, and time to share in council. There will be a 24 hour solo with optional fasting. Camping experience is useful, but not a prerequisite. This program is open to all people of all spiritual and religious traditions.
