Auspicious beginnings to the year

meditations on taking and giving in Merida, Mexico

We started the year in a great way with our first course of the year, New Year, New Me. Our Resident Teacher at KMC Merida, Gen Kelsang Chime, inspired us with clear, practical and accessible teachings for everyone.

She encouraged us to transform ourselves into happy, virtuous and peaceful people through the practice of supreme medicine: Buddha's advice from the book Universal Compassion, written by our founder, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche.

Gen Chime highlighted the meditations on taking with compassion and giving with love, explaining that, by practicing them, we can reduce and eliminate our selfish attitudes, as well as reduce depression, anxiety and stress. At the same time, these meditations allow us to increase our compassion and love, accumulate a large amount of positive mental energy and purify our negative karma. In addition, they help us transform the difficulties of daily life into the spiritual path and awaken our Buddha nature, to benefit others without limits.

May all beings enjoy this great fortune!
