Away retreat: Silence, harmony and profound peace
The path to connect with Buddha - retreat at IKRC Grand Canyon
This past weekend, Kadampa Meditation Center Los Angeles and San Francisco joined together for another away retreat at IKRC Grand Canyon. Gen Choma and Gen Rigpa led this retreat and gave commentary to one of our most precious prayers, the Liberating Prayer. This prayer was given to us by our Spiritual Guide Venerable Geshe-la and is recited by Kadampa Buddhists throughout the world at the beginning of every teaching and meditation session.
For Buddhists, faith in Buddha Shakyamuni is their spiritual life; it is the root of all Dharma realizations. What better way to connect to Buddha than through contemplating the profound meaning of this prayer together with fellow Kadampas in this extraordinary World Peace Temple. It was not difficult to believe that we are constantly receiving Buddha’s blessings and kindness.
Thank you to all who were able to make it to this retreat, and thank you to the kind community at International Kadampa Retreat Center Grand Canyon for making this retreat possible.
