What a beautiful weekend of slowing down, turning inward, and deepening our meditation practice! 💛

Part 2 of our How to Train in Concentration Retreat offered a special opportunity to step away from our daily activities and enjoy teachings, meditation, quiet moments of reflection, a delicious meal, Q&A, and the warmth of spiritual community.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this retreat so special. May the peace and inspiration we experienced continue to grow in our daily lives. 🙏

Gen Norbu, the Resident Teacher from Kadampa Meditation Center NC, gave the introductory teaching and meditation to prepare us for the empowerment. Then our Resident Teacher, Gen Dechok, granted the Blessing Empowerment of Buddha Shakyamuni followed by a teaching on the immense meaning of the Liberating Prayer and a retreat session where we engaged in the practice of Buddha Shakyamuni.
