Green Tara is revered as the mother of all Buddhas and the swift liberator who responds to the prayers of those in need. This retreat offers an extraordinary opportunity to connect with Green Tara’s compassionate energy and to cultivate the qualities she represents courage, fearlessness, wisdom, and compassion. During this weekend retreat, Geshe Sherab will introduce Green Tara, her iconography, and significance within the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. Participants will also receive teachings on the mantra, visualization, and meditation practices associated with Green Tara. This weekend retreat is an invitation to immerse yourself in the compassionate energy of Green Tara, to find strength and solace in her presence, and to bring her enlightened qualities into your everyday life.
