Tibetan Buddhism offers rich wisdom on bringing every kind of situation onto the spiritual path. All the challenges that occur in our lives can be a source of inner growth if we welcome them with an open heart and an enlightened perspective. Chakung Jigme Wangdrak Rinpoche has recently published book entitled “Loving Life As It Is,” which is highly relevant to this retreat. Both teachers will speak about how to nurture the qualities that support these timeless teachings in meditation practice and how to embody these teachings in everyday life.

This programme will take place in person at the London Shambhala Meditation Centre but can also be attended online – Please contact Katrina on koordynator [email protected] if you would like to participate remotely.
