Sanctuary in Uncertainty
Insight Meditation Retreat with Roger Wilde and Jeremy Logan
at Wangapeka Retreat Centre
Tuesday 22 – Sunday 27 September, 2026
Please note: there has been a change of dates
In these unprecedented times of profound change and uncertainty, a new world is emerging. Steady, compassionate presence helps us meet the chaos and pain rather than turn away. With clarity and determination, we can move forward together to build a world grounded in justice, kindness, and shared resources, rather than in greed, hatred, and delusion.
Insight Meditation nurtures our natural capacity to awaken to wisdom and open-heartedness. By tending to our own suffering, we begin to see that our personal welfare and happiness are inseparable from the well-being of all life.

Dana for the teachers
In keeping with ancient Buddhist tradition, the Dharma teachings are given freely, in the spirit of dana. Dana is a Pali word that means generosity, and this is the foundation attitude for practice. In our modern world, dana may take the form of monetary offering. Participants have an opportunity to offer dana to the teachers at the end of the retreat.
Sangha Support Fund
We keep the retreat registration cost as low as possible, aiming to break even. However, we know that even this basic cost may be unaffordable for people with limited income. We now have a Sangha Support Fund, which allows some retreatants to pay a subsidized rate. If you need support with costs, please email us, briefly explaining your situation.
Registrations from Overseas
Our intention in offering this retreat is primarily to support the Nelson Insight Meditation community, however we welcome registrations from those living throughout the motu (Aotearoa-New Zealand).
If you live outside Aotearoa, please email us at: insightnelson@gmail.com before filling out this form, as we are not set up to take international payments.
