Rupert Marques

Rupert has practiced in the insight meditation tradition for over 30 years in Europe, America, Asia, and Australia. He teaches at various retreat centers in Europe and beyond, and for three years lived and worked at Ecodharma, a contemplative retreat community in the Spanish Pyrenees dedicated to exploring the role of the Dharma in the movements for social justice and ecological sustainability.

Rupert also guides wilderness rites of passage, and his teaching emphasizes the role of the more-than-human world as our companion, teacher, and larger ground of our identity. He currently works with individuals and organizations, offering a range of retreats and trainings that explore personal empowerment and resilience in service of creating a more just and beneficial human presence on this Earth.
