Inner Stability in Challenging Times - Guided Retreat

Following on from the NKT-IKBU International Spring Festival at Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Centre in England, Gen Kelsang Tonglam will lead a retreat based on the teachings and commentaries received at this Festival at Heruka KMC.

During this retreat, Gen Tonglam will guide us in meditations on transforming adverse conditions. We will learn how to train our mind to respond to any difficulty with peace and positivity — strengthening both our wisdom or our compassion. In this way, we become resilient and invulnerable to challenging situations.

"A good heart always gives good results" Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
