The Yoga of the Great Mother Prajnaparamita

Half-day Retreat

Offered in-person (for everyone) and online (for members only)

with Michelle Valladares

10:00 - 11:30am, 12:15 - 1:30pm + Q&A

$20 or $12 per session, free for supporting members

During this retreat, Michelle will guide two sessions in the practice of the Yoga of the Great Mother Prajnaparamita, who is the female manifestation of Buddha’s perfection of wisdom.

Through practicing the yoga of the Great Mother, we can accomplish the perfection of wisdom (wisdom motivated by the supreme good heart, bodhichitta), as well as the higher perfection of wisdom (wisdom that is the union of great bliss and emptiness, the quick path to enlightenment). Furthermore, we can gain victory over outer and inner obstructions and become an enlightened being like Buddha Shakyamuni. How wonderful!

This retreat is offered to everyone, and in particular, students of the Teacher Training Program at KMC NYC.
