Guru Yoga & Mandala Offering Retreat (Unguided)

Friday 12th – Sunday 14th June

Introduction Friday 12th June 7 – 8.15pm

Information

We all wish to make swift progress on the path to enlightenment, but this depends upon creating certain inner conditions such as purifying negativity, accumulating merit, and receiving blessings.

In this retreat we focus on the preliminary practices of accumulating merit and receiving blessings.

Making mandala offerings – a special way of viewing a pure universe and offering it to the Buddhas –  is the gateway to accumulating the collection of merit and attaining an enlightened pure land. Guru yoga is the gateway to receiving powerful blessings of all the Buddhas of the ten directions through our Spiritual Guide.

The practice is accomplished within the sadhana Offering to the Spiritual Guide.

If you have a mandala kit please bring it along, otherwise we will have some plates and rice that you can use for the purposes of this retreat.

Everyone is welcome to attend this special in-depth meditation retreat, though some prior experience would be beneficial.

Teacher

Gen Kelsang Sherab is the Resident Teacher at KMC Glasgow. He teaches with clarity and wisdom from deep experience of meditation, and shows us how to keep a happy heart in whatever we do.
