Florida Peaceful Getaway Retreat

Held at the Kadampa Temple for World Peace | Sarasota
Taught by the Resident Teachers of the Seven Kadampa Centers in Florida

Join us in beautiful Sarasota for a special weekend retreat inspired by Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life by the great master Shantideva. This timeless text is a step-by-step guide to living with compassion, wisdom, and strength in our modern world.

This year’s theme, “Benefiting Others by Becoming Your Best Self,” explores the transformative power of the Six Perfections—giving, moral discipline, patience, effort, concentration, and wisdom. These profound practices lie at the heart of the Bodhisattva path and offer us a blueprint for living a deeply meaningful life.

Throughout the weekend, Resident Teachers from the seven Kadampa centers in Florida will share Buddha’s teachings and guide meditations that awaken our inner potential and show how becoming our best self is the most powerful way to benefit the people around us.

Whether you are new to Buddhism or a long-time practitioner, this retreat offers a joyful opportunity to deepen your spiritual practice, connect with like-minded individuals, and return home inspired and empowered.
