Guided Refuge Retreat

with Sunday Night Introduction Talk

March 8 Intro to Refuge Retreat

The foundation of Buddhism is refuge in the Three Jewels. Dharma is like medicine that prevents the sufferings of this impure cycle of life.  Buddha is like the doctor who gives us this medicine, and Sangha are the nurses who assist us.

In this introductory talk, we will learn how to rely upon the Three Jewels as objects of refuge, and how to engage in a meditation retreat to make our practice of refuge come alive. With refuge as our basis, our spiritual life will produce meaningful results. Everyone is welcome.

March 9-13 Guided Refuge Retreat

During this retreat we will spend time developing the beautiful mind of refuge, our actual protection from all pain and problems. Through our own practice of refuge, we gradually build a stable peace in our mind, increase our confidence to make authentic spiritual progress, and to nurture an experience of joy and freedom.

Each session will include a teaching and guided meditations led by Resident Teacher, Gen Kelsang Wangpo.
