"Although all living beings possess the seed of full enlightenment, this seed is brought to perfect fruition only through the complete practice of the Mahayana path."

Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, Joyful Path of Good Fortune

Join us for a week-long retreat on part two of the Lamrim, Stages of the Path, focusing on the great scope meditations of love, compassion and bodhichitta. By training in these minds we will eventually enter the Mahayana path which opens the door to us to achieve full enlightenment, the real purpose of our human life. Through the attainment of enlightenment we will be able to help every living being attain the same state.

The meditations during this week will be based on the presentation of the Stages of the Path meditations in Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso's The Mirror of Dharma with Additions.

Additional books: Joyful Path of Good Fortune
