SUMMARY:US National Festival 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Heart of Reality\nPrajnaparamita Empowerment & Teachings on the Heart Sutra with Gen-la Kelsang Khyenrab\nThis is an excerpt of the Heart Sutra\, viewed to be the quintessence of Buddha's explanation of emptiness\, or "ultimate truth". From one point of view\, it is utterly simple and a bare revelation of the truth. From another angle\, it is like a beautiful puzzle to be explored and understood that will yield never-ending insights. Its raw power\, when recited with a compassionate motivation\, shifts the mind and empowers change. \nTo aid our understanding of this profound practice\, we will receive the empowerment of Buddha Prajnaparamita. Prajnaparamita is the embodiment of the higher perfection of wisdom. Empowerments are blissful\, guided meditations that help facilitate a connection with a certain enlightened being. Through receiving this blessing empowerment\, we will gain inspiration to understand these deep truths of the Heart Sutra and feel energized to make positive change in our life. Everyone welcome!
