João, we’re practically wrapping up the retreat here; the morning is drawing to a close. What was important for you during this retreat?
For me, it was important to experience and undertake this deeper retreat of meditation and silence. It might seem daunting at first, spending so many days here, but in fact, everything flowed very naturally.
It was very peaceful, and meditating eight times a day is perfectly possible – I really do recommend it.
If anyone is watching this video and is thinking of doing it, what would you say they can expect from a retreat like this?
I think they can expect to gain experience, test their personal limits, deepen their faith and give themselves the opportunity to encounter Jesus, to encounter the divine temple that dwells within us. Thank you.
