Upcoming Special Events | June

Every day we remember the extraordinary kindness of Venerable Geshe-la, our Root Guru and Founder of the New Kadampa Tradition, but on this auspicious day, with minds of rejoicing and gratitude, we will offer him our faith through using the special prayer Request to the Holy Spiritual Guide Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso from his Faithful Disciples and collecting our Guru’s name mantra in a one-day retreat.

There will be three sessions of self-guided retreat using the sadhana, The Hundreds of Deities of the Joyful Land According to Highest Yoga Tantra and the special request prayer. In the evening, the retreat will conclude with Offering to the Spiritual Guide.

Life is full of challenges and stresses. Often our normal reaction is to develop an anxious or negative mind, and relate to ourselves as a victim, as powerless. Come learn how to develop and strengthen your confidence and power, protect your mind from discouragement, and increase your experience of peace and happiness.

“I will conquer all obstacles, and none shall conquer me” is the attitude of a spiritual warrior.

Using Buddhist wisdom and meditation, we can flip the script and learn how to respond to difficulties with a calm, steady mind – skillfully letting go of stress and anxiety, and transforming life’s difficulties into opportunities to improve our good qualities. 

This workshop will includes two 1hr 15min sessions. Each session includes teaching and guided meditation. You’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions. Suitable for all levels of experience. Everyone welcome!

Solving all our daily problems and ultimately all our suffering through developing loving kindness – the supreme protection from all difficulties and pain.
