In an Atmosphere of Great Joy and Faith

Practitioners around the world are taking time this January to engage in retreat. Wonderful events are being organized globally, providing opportunities for people to retreat from their usual busy pace of life. They can slow down, look inwards, and engage in their spiritual practice more deeply. See this post for retreats in Argentina, South Africa, and Germany.

Over 40 individuals joined the Urban Retreat: Introduction to Meditation at KMC Argentina, guided by Resident Teacher Gen Kelsang Rinchung. The teachings focused on how meditation practice can help us to achieve inner peace. Everyone enjoyed taking a break from their usual daily routine to explore the practice of meditation.

During the first two weeks of January, the community of KMC Durban engaged in two retreats. In the first, ‘Change your Habits’, Gen Jampel, our Resident Teacher guided us through the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment, according to the presentation in The Mirror of Dharma with Additions by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.

With this foundation in our hearts, we engaged in a short Vajrayogini retreat, ‘Joyful Journey to Keajra’ in which we explored the practice of the eleven yogas of Vajrayogini.
