Richard Rohr on retreats:
· Retreats can take us into liminal space, though only if we avoid bringing our ‘business as usual’ mindset with us and dragging all our baggage along.
· To really retreat we must be willing to be stripped of much, or all of what makes me, me.
· Retreats take us away from our everyday world and break our addiction to it.
· Without some humility, vulnerability, and openness there is no reason to take a retreat at all.
· We are invited into a deep transformative conversation, there on the threshold between who we are and who we can become, if we are willing to let go of what holds us back.
