Brushing away saṃsāra with the wings of wisdom and compassion

led by Ven. Losang Gendun

Fake news is the characteristic of saṃsāra. The waves of ego, opinions and self-righteousness can make it seem difficult sometimes to keep our heads above the water. To navigate this dreamlike world, we need to become like magicians that, unaffected by the spells of anger and greed, calmly conjure up pure lands in which our dear mother sentient beings can find rest. Surrounded by a non-judgmental kindness and unconditional care, change becomes possible and new doors to freedom can present themselves. This retreat focusses on mixing the bliss of compassion with the openness of emptiness, to train in transforming adversity into the path of enlightenment.

You are invited to join us for a week of simplicity and peace in which meditation, good food, some teachings and plenty of time for Q&A aim to nourish heart and mind. With Geshe Chekawa Yeshe Dorje’s Seven Points of Mind Training as our guide, we are sure to walk in the footsteps of the bodhisattvas before us.
