Venue: Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Centre Conishead Priory, Ulverston LA12 9QQ
This special course will be based on the precious instructions from the book The Mirror of Dharma with Additions by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche. Empowered by the blessings and oral commentary that she received directly from Ven Geshela in Granada, Gen-la Dekyong will guide us to extract the most profound meanings of Venerable Geshe-la’s heart instruction ~ how to train in purifying and transforming the six classes of living being. This is a very blessed instruction that comes from the Ganden Emanation Scripture.
Understanding that unbearable suffering pervades the entire world, and with deep compassion for all living beings, we will learn how to cause Avalokiteshvara to abide at our heart, and gain great confidence to quickly attain the Union of Avalokiteshvara.
