Seven-Day Retreat with Bob Dattola

Bob Dattola will give talks and be available for private meetings and the daily afternoon group dialogue in this summer retreat. Bob has been taking part in the Center’s work since its inception. Important questions for him over the years have been “What is Truth or Reality?” and “Where can Truth be found?” In addition to pursuing his career at Xerox and Cornell University, Bob has served as a trustee for many years and in recent years has been leading retreat at the Center.

In a retreat talk Bob gave in November 2014, he explored listening, understanding, and another way of being that comes out of this presence, this hereness. In Bob’s words,

In this hereness there’s some kind of . . . intelligence that works totally outside of this thinking process . . . And it’s not just intelligence. The word I like to use is compassion.
