Meditations for Clarity of Mind
Half-Day Meditation Retreat

“When the turbulence of distracting thoughts subsides and our mind becomes still, a deep happiness and contentment naturally arises from within.”  - Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche

The real source of happiness is inner peace. If our mind is peaceful, we will be happy all the time, regardless of external conditions, but if it is disturbed or troubled in any way, we will never be happy, no matter how good our external conditions may be.  In this half-day meditation retreat we will learn how to meditate on the mind itself with a sequence of beautiful and profound meditations taught by Buddha. With regular practice, these meditations help us to experience mental clarity and a deep and profound inner peace.  

Through training in concentration observing our own mind we can overcome distractions and come to experience for ourself the inner peace arising from the clarity of the mind. This way of meditating also overcomes quickly our worries, anxiety, negative thoughts and other mental busyness. It connects us directly to our limitless essential nature - our root mind, which is like an ocean of inner peace and bliss at our heart.
