Take a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life in the peaceful surroundings of Menlha's beautiful meditation room. Everything has been arranged for you to rest your mind and reflect on positive thoughts. During these Saturdays, you will be gently guided in two meditations that heal our past, our body and our mind. Each month we change the focus of our reflections – from simple breathing meditations to healing our body meditations, to contemplations on cherishing others more deeply. Everyone welcome.

We dedicate most of our time and energy trying to avoid problems by making changes to the external world. However, the main cause of our unhappiness and difficulties cannot be found in external conditions. It is the negative karma we have created in the past through performing harmful actions. By relying upon Vajrasattva, the Buddha of purification we will cleanse our mind of delusions, negativity and obstacles.
Discover four opponent powers that when used in combination with Vajrasattva’s powerful mantra can prevent future suffering and purify our mind. Through special meditation and mantra recitation we have the great opportunity to purify our mind quickly, so that we can make swift progress on the spiritual path.

In Kadampa Buddhism, the practice of transference of consciousness is known as 'powa,' which literally means "transference". Join us each month to explore this ancient practice which involves guiding the consciousness of the recently deceased to the Pure Land of Buddha, a world free from the painful rebirths of samsara.
This class follows the monthly Prayers for the Recently Deceased Practice.This class will be based on the book Living Meaningfully, Dying Joyfully by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, which is available in our bookstore, or here in e-book, paperback, and audiobook formats.
