Green Tara is the female Buddha of active compassion who, as the manifestation of the ultimate wisdom of all the Buddhas, is known as the โ€˜Mother of the Conquerorsโ€™. She is also known as the โ€˜Great Liberatorโ€™ who pacifies all sickness, poverty, misfortune, fighting and quarrelling, and causes the Dharma and all good fortune to flourish. Her green-coloured body symbolizes that she is also the manifestation of the fully purified wind element of all the Buddhas, and like the wind is quick to respond to the prayers of those in need. Her right leg extended also indicates her readiness to help others

Everyone is welcome, no previous experience is necessary. Come and enjoy a meaningful weekend with like-minded individuals full of blessings, meditation and positive encouragement ๐ŸŒŸ

Inspiration from within with Resident Teacher Kelsang Sama

Immerse yourself on this silent meditation day retreat focusing on a special breathing meditation that combines mindfulness of the breath with the recitation of mantra.

There are many different Buddhist mantras, but they are all contained within the mantra โ€˜OM AH HUMโ€™ as this is the essence of all mantras- the nature of enlightened body, speech and mind. Engaging in this special breathing meditation produces many good results- it calms our mind and causes our distracting conceptions to subside, giving rise to a special feeling of inner peace.

Everyone is welcome, no previous experience necessary! ๐Ÿ’š
