November 19
10:00 am - 1:00 pm
There are many ways to connect with enlightened beings and tap into their beneficial qualities, such as wisdom and compassion. We can make this connection through images as well as through sacred sounds known as mantras.
Mantra means “mind protection” and reciting them can bring inner peace, healing, and a sense of protection. They are also a way to bring benefit to others who are suffering.
During this workshop, Gen Kelsang Rinzin will explain mantra recitation and give instructions for combining mantra recitation with breathing meditation. Participants will have the opportunity to practice this simple method for attaining a calm and positive mind. Come learn this powerful technique for achieving a blissful, joyful mind!
