What a great weekend we had down at the Australian Dharma Celebrations in Monbulk, Dandenongs, Victoria, receiving commentary on Vajrasattva practice with Gen Rabten. The little kids and big kids had fun and enjoyed spending time chatting and contemplating this necessary practice.
Thank you to all the volunteers who helped put on another lovely weekend and we hope that you can all make it down one day.
