SUMMARY:Reliance & Emptiness
DESCRIPTION:Step out for a Friday Night Talk that will kick off a Dorje Shugden challenge of collecting 10\,000 mantras.  We will explore how reliance on Dorje Shugden can help enhance our practice of emptiness in daily life. If everything is empty\, do we just let go of control? No\, but we can hand the reins over to someone more skillful than ourself- our Dharma Protector. And then train in the feeling (while reciting his mantra) that the most favorable conditions are indeed being created \nGen Lhadron will guide a practice session each morning throughout the following week. It will also be available for livestream participation. Join in to spice up your morning practice and deepen your connection with Dorje Shugden. \nFriday Night talk:  March 13 | 7-8:30pm \nMorning sessions: Sat-Fri | 8-9:30am \nException: Sunday\, March 15 | 2-3:30pm \nRegistration Coming Soon!

SUMMARY:Happiness from the Inside Out
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a joyful and inspiring weekend meditation retreat exploring practical methods for creating happiness. \nWe often hear that happiness comes from within\, but what does that really mean\, and how do we do it? Buddhist philosophy offers clear\, practical tools for developing inner peace and well-being\, the true foundations of a happy life. During this retreat\, we will explore the inner causes of happiness and learn how our own mind can either nurture or undermine it. \nUsually\, we believe our happiness depends on people\, circumstances\, or good conditions. When things go well\, we feel happy; when they don’t\, we suffer. But a happiness that depends on external conditions is fragile and easily lost. Through meditation and reflection\, we will learn how to gently loosen this dependence and discover a more stable\, reliable source\, inner peace and our own love for others. \nIn this way we create positive feelings that no one can take away. Everyone welcome! \n  \nSchedule\nFriday\, March 6 \n\nDinner: 5:30-6:30pm\nRetreat Intro : 7-8:30pm\n\nSaturday\, March 7 \n\nSession 1: 9-10am\nSession 2: 11-12pm\nLunch: 12-1pm\nSession 3: 2-3pm\nSession 4: 4-5pm \nDinner: 6-7pm\n\nSunday\, March 8 \n\nSession 5: 9-10am\nSession 6 / Sun Med Class : 11-12:15pm\nlunch

SUMMARY:Center Cherishing
DESCRIPTION:All Kadampa centers are dedicated to all living beings. They belong to them\, remaining in their service for all time\, and can never be taken over by individuals or organizations and used for other purposes. \nFor this reason\, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche says that these centers are very precious and that whenever we engage in an action to benefit a center we are in fact benefitting all living beings. Through such actions we accumulate vast merit\, purify negativities and receive powerful blessings. \nThis event is a special opportunity for people to come together and cherish our center and in this way benefit our local community practically. Snacks will be provided. Everyone welcome!
