About this event

Registration Opens August 11

Take a break from the busyness and excessive productivity of everyday life, and retreat into the clarity and calm deep within our own mind.

During this special weekend mountain retreat, attendees will be guided in meditations on the nature and clarity of our own mind. These sublime meditations are effective methods for improving concentration and counteracting negative mental habits that result in stress, anxiety and fear.

By training in these meditations, our mind becomes progressively more subtle and peaceful, causing us to experience a profound inner stillness and tranquility. Eventually, we will discover our own inner potential for lasting peace, happiness and true freedom.

These meditations are part of the Mahamudra tradition, the very essence of Buddha’s teachings. Gaining the slightest experience of these blessed instructions will revolutionize our life, transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary.

Sessions will be skillfully guided by the Resident Teachers of Southern Kadampa Centers. Sessions include a brief teaching, silent time for meditation and time for question and answer. All sessions are suitable for beginners and those with some experience of Kadampa Buddhism.
