SUMMARY:White Tara Empowerment
DESCRIPTION:with Gen Kelsang Lhadron \n\nAn empowerment is a beautiful guided meditation and teachings on becoming our best self and ripening our highest potential. Through receiving White Tara’s blessings\, we make a special connection with the Buddha of Long Life and begin to discover her peaceful\, compassionate qualities within ourselves. \nWhite Tara bestows blessings for long life\, wisdom\, and good fortune. A long life gives us precious time\, while wisdom helps us use that time meaningfully. During this special event\, Gen Lhadron will guide us in meditation and share how White Tara’s practice can help us meet life’s difficulties with a peaceful mind\, grow in compassion\, and make each day count. \nWhite Tara’s tantric practice offers a profound opportunity for transformation. Through meditation\, we learn to let go of our ordinary ways of seeing ourselves and become familiar with our pure potential. Whether you are new to Buddhism or have practised for many years\, this empowerment is an opportunity to deepen your connection with an enlightened friend and discover the possibility of lasting inner change. \n\n\n\n\nEveryone is welcome.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSchedule\nSaturday\, December 12 \n\n9-10: Meditation\n11-1: Empowerment\n3-4:30: Teaching\n7:30-8:30: Wishfulfilling Jewel Prayer with food offering\n\nSunday\, December 13 \n\n9-10: Meditation\n11-12:30: Teaching\n2-3:30: Teaching & Practice\n4:30-6: Burritos on the Beach (Lido Beach near Pavilion)\n\nMonday\, December 14 \n\n9-10:30: Retreat \n11-12:30: Retreat\n\n  \n  \nPricing\n\nSaturday only – $75\nSaturday and Sunday – $95\nRetreat (Monday) – $25\nAccommodations (2 nights) – $110 – 190\nSee registration for member pricing
