Mind Training, or Lojong, is a practical and inspiring teaching that transforms the mind afflicted by destructive emotions. At the heart of all practices of Tibetan Buddhism, Mind Training puts special emphasis on turning away from extreme self-centeredness and developing Bodhicitta mind, which wishes for the happiness of all sentient beings. Teachings in this retreat will center on how to cultivate compassion, patience, and wisdom. The retreat will include teachings, guided meditations, and discussion.

This retreat is open to everyone. No prior meditation experience is required.

Suggested Dana: $160 – $200
