Guru Yoga & Mandala Offering Retreat


~ with Gen Kelsang Chodor & Others


For those who wish for a deep inner transformation, this annual retreat offers an opportunity to familiarize ourselves with two in-depth Buddhist practices: Guru yoga and mandala offerings. Both practices are powerful ways to fill our mind with merit, or good fortune, and to receive profound, transformative blessings. They are indispensable for those who are serious about attaining authentic spiritual realizations, in particular the state of full enlightenment.

The practice of Guru yoga is a special way of relying upon our Spiritual Guide with faith and imagination, in order to receive his or her blessings. The practice of mandala offerings is an offering of the entire universe visualized as a Pure Land, with all its inhabitants as pure beings. Although this is an in-depth Buddhist practice, it is suitable for everyone. No prior experience of Buddhism or meditation is required. Everyone is welcome!

This retreat will be fully guided by Gen Kelsang Chodor and other qualified teachers. Partial booking is available. Please see the link below for details.
