This Winter City Retreat is a special opportunity to focus on purifying our mind using the practice called “Meditation and Recitation of Solitary Vajrasattva”. Buddha Vajrasattva is the Buddha of purification and this practice will be introduced and explained during this retreat.
Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso explains:
“Since purification is the root of future happiness and spiritual realizations, we should strive to cleanse our mind of delusions and negativity by practising the meditation and recitation of Vajrasattva. This is a very powerful method of purification.”
The opportunity to purify our mind is an aspect of our precious human life, and learning how to do this practically is the main focus of this retreat. You will learn how to find pure joy from within your mind through developing this wisdom that understands karma. The knowledge and experience you will learn can be used continuously throughout your life to free your mind of obstructions to happiness.
Join us for this special weekend to discover the pathway to pure joy!
About this retreat
This retreat is open to everyone, with no prior meditation experience needed. You are welcome to join us as you are—no special clothing is required. Most participants sit comfortably on chairs, though meditation cushions are also available.
The retreat is conducted in clear, accessible English and welcomes people from a variety of backgrounds and cultures. The sessions will be led by experienced meditation teacher Kadam Tim, who has been a student of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso for over 22 years.
To support a deeper experience, we will practice verbal retreat by keeping silent the first half of each day.
