DESCRIPTION:This empowerment is a sublime guided meditation through which we make a deep connection with Arya Green Tara and gain insight on how to rely on her blessings in our spiritual practice. \nArya Tara is a female Buddha\, a manifestation of the ultimate wisdom of all enlightened beings. “Tara” means rescuer; if we rely on Tara with strong faith she will care for us throughout this life and all our future lives. \nThe event includes the blessing empowerment of Arya Green Tara\, instructions on how to receive her enlightened care and blessings in our daily life\, and the opportunity to engage in group practice to strengthen our connection to Tara.

SUMMARY:Guru Yoga Mandala Offering Retreat
DESCRIPTION:We all wish for spiritual realizations\, but these depend upon creating certain inner conditions such as purifying negativity\, accumulating merit\, and receiving blessings. To do this we need to practice the four great preliminary guides. As a result\, we will gain mahamudra realizations – the quick path to enlightenment. In this retreat we focus on the preliminary practices of receiving blessings and accumulating merit.
