About the Event
Buddha’s Tantric teachings are methods that harness the imagination to produce powerful inner transformation and deep inner peace. They are known as the “quick path to enlightenment". Based on the wish to experience lasting mental freedom, and especially the altruistic wish to help others as quickly as possible, we learn how to access our natural inner bliss and wisdom so that we can purify and transform our minds as quickly as possible for our own and others’ sake.
In this beginner’s course, you will be given an introduction to authentic Buddhist
Tantra, including practical methods that you can use right away to improve your
life. This course will also serve as an introduction to anyone thinking about receiving Highest Yoga Tantra empowerments at the International Summer Festival this Summer. The Festival will take place at Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Centre in the United Kingdom (UK) from July 28-August 12. For more information please visit the festival website.
Everyone is welcome!
Children's class will be offered for the first 2 sessions of the retreat only! Please register accordingly
