SUMMARY:Guru Yoga Mandala Offering Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Guru Yoga and Mandala Offering Retreat \nThe practices of accumulating merit and receiving blessings \nWe all wish for spiritual realizations\, but these depend upon creating certain inner (mental) conditions such as purifying our negativity\, accumulating merit (good fortune)\, and receiving blessings.\nIn Guru Yoga Mandala Offering Retreat we focus on the practices of accumulating merit and receiving blessings. \nMaking mandala offerings (offering a pure universe) is the gateway to accumulating the collection of merit and attaining an enlightened pure land\, and Guru yoga is the gateway to receiving the powerful blessings of all the Buddhas through our Spiritual Guide. \nThe retreat starts on Tuesday evening with an introductory talk\, taught by Kadam Trina. This talk is mandatory for TTP students and for those wishing to participate in this retreat who have not engaged in this retreat before. All retreat sessions (Wednesday-Saturday) are self-guided. \nKadam Trina will give an introductory talk to this retreat on Tuesday\, Oct 28\, 7:00-9:00pm. Everyone welcome!
