I’d like to know if this retreat— https://brooklynzen.org/event/2016/5/18/bodhisattva-samdhi-a-5-day-sesshin-with-tenshin-reb-anderson-may-18-22/ —would qualify as a prerequisite for the Teacher Development Intensive. Thanks!
Hi Scott,
This looks like it is a non-residential retreat, which case, it would not
qualify for that reason. But, also, and perhaps more to the point, from
what I read, mindfulness meditation is not the main pratice being offered
at this retreat, which is what you want to look for to meet our
prerequisites.
Did you take a look at the list of meditation centers and retreats on our
website? Here are links to that info:

This might be helpful for you in finding a retreat that will fit your
schedule and meet our guidelines. If you read the text on the first linked
page, you’ll see our clear statement that mindfuless practice is to be the
main focus of retreats folks attend to support their training with the
Oasis Institute.
Kindly,
Eowyn
