Blessing Empowerment of Wisdom Buddha Manjushri & Revealing the Priceless Value of Venerable Geshe-la’s Uncommon Explanation of How to Meditate.

with Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong
Resident Teacher of Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Centre
Mar 1 – 3, 2024

Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso is a fully accomplished meditation master and Kadampa practitioners emphasise training in meditation. In his recent teachings Venerable Geshe-la gives us a very special superior presentation of how to meditate correctly and continuously, so that our meditations bring about great results.

Just as we may not recognise diamonds and mistake them for glass – Gen-la Dekyong will help us discover the wisdom that recognises the priceless value of this special presentation, so that we use it and don’t mistakenly ignore it, thinking we know how to meditate already. We will then become qualified Kadampa practitioners with the ability to lead ourself and others correctly in meditation to pure lasting happiness. How wonderful!

(Based on oral instructions and transmissions Gen-la Dekyong has personally received, including teachings from The Mirror of Dharma with Additions)
