Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche lived the life of a modern-day Mahasiddha, a true Ta***ic yogi whose example continues to inspire.
From a young age, Geshe-la devoted himself wholeheartedly to Dharma. He trained extensively in the great monastic universities of Tibet, later receiving the title Geshe, meaning “spiritual friend”. Guided by his Spiritual Guide, Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche, he then spent an extraordinary 18 years in solitary meditation retreat in the Himalayas and the mountains of northern India, followed by further retreat in the West.
Geshe-la’s extraordinary life was not lived for his own benefit alone. Through his Modern Buddhist presentation, he showed how people living ordinary lives can gain profound realizations by combining daily meditation, meaningful daily practice, and occasional retreat.
This is the spirit behind our Winter Mahamudra Retreat, beginning this Friday at our centre in Copenhagen. It is a precious opportunity to step back from daily busyness, rest the mind in clarity and space, and draw closer to the profound teachings Geshe-la shared for our time.
If you’ve been longing for depth and a genuine experience of your mind’s potential, this retreat offers the perfect conditions.
