Beshara School

 

'The essential is not to falter from one’s own essence which is The Essence'
Bulent Rauf from The Essential

You will be amazed how far and how deep you can travel in just two days – if you want to find a new direction to your life, or simply need some quiet time away from it all. 

A weekend retreat which offers a first taste of what it means to understand your ‘self’ from a point of one-ness. The course follows a programme of study, work, meditation and conversation. Study materials include poems and extracts of Rumi and Ibn ‘Arabi, and papers written specially for the School.

Accommodation and Timing: The course is fully residential. More about student facilities
It starts at supper time (7.30pm) on Friday evening and runs until Sunday after lunch (about 2pm).

The location is Chisholme House, a beautiful, secluded estate on the edge of open moorland, deep in the hills of the Scottish Borders. It is roughly an hour’s drive from Edinburgh, Newcastle and Carlisle, with a regular bus service from Edinburgh and Carlisle to Hawick, the nearest town.

How to get there...

Cost: £110 including full board and lodging for two nights.

Note on course fees: There are no standard concessions offered on most courses, because the fees are already kept as low as possible. However, we do try to ensure the courses are accessible to those on low incomes, so please write to secretary@beshara.org to enquire about reduced course fees or bursary possibilities if you would find the cost of a course prohibitive.

To Book: Click on the 'Book your place' box at the top of this page. Alternatively, please write to secretary@beshara.org, or call +44 (0)1450 880215. 

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any queries.
