Love, Connection & Peace
~ A Day Retreat ~
with Gen Kelsang Chodor
The theme of this special guided retreat is meditation on loving kindness.
These meditations help us to develop warm and positive feelings towards others and strengthen our sense of connection with friends, family, and those around us.
Meditation on loving kindness opens the heart, and cultivating this good heart naturally leads to greater peace and happiness for ourselves and those around us.
This good heart is the very essence of the Mahayana path and the main cause of great compassion - the wish to protect all living beings from fear and suffering.
The retreat sessions include practical instructions, guided meditations, and time for questions and answers.
Between sessions, there is time to relax, rest, and connect with like-minded people in our community space.
The peaceful surroundings of Kadampa Meditation Centre Canada provide the ideal environment for developing inner calm and a peaceful mind.
Everyone Welcome!
