Empower Your Spiritual Life

The Magical Practice of Tantra

Thanks to live-streaming there is now an opportunity for all of us to attend both the International Kadampa Spring Festival in the U.K. and the national U.S. Festival in Glen Spey from the comfort of our homes. Both of these events include a tantric empowerment and a commentary to a specific tantric practice. In preparation for these events, Kadam Morten will lead a half-day course where he will explain and guide meditations from the Tantric tradition.

Tantra is a powerfully creative method for actualizing our full potential. Taught by Buddha and used for centuries, Tantric meditation practices rely strongly upon the imagination and learning to tune into the empowering and healing energy of blessings. Gaining insight into these methods will give us a clear vision of our extraordinary potential.

This half-day course is open to everyone, whether or not you are planning to participate in an upcoming empowerment.
