Mahamudra is the quintessential teaching of Tibetan Buddhism and refers to the fact that all things have the nature of inseparable wisdom and emptiness. Although phenomena appear vividly, reality is beyond concept and imagination, indeed Mahamudra is the doorway to liberation.

Geshe-la will teach the root text of the first Panchen Lama Lozang Chokyi Gyaltsen, from the book “Gelug / Kagyu Tradition of Mahahmudra “ by His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

The retreat will be mostly in silence, incorporating daily Guru Yoga practise, teachings and meditations.

All warmly welcome experienced and beginners alike.
