Talk & MANTRA CHANTING in Brazil
Over 200 people chanted Avalokiteshvara's mantra "OM MANI PAME HUM" for 7 minutes at a public talk about training the mind at the SESC sports gym in Jundiaí, São Paulo, Brazil.
The event, called Meditation is also an Exercise! How to Train the Mind, took place on June 16 and was created and organized by Vajrayogini KBC with space provided by SESC. Resident Teacher Gen Kelsang Chime demonstrated how Buddha's teachings on the mind offer a vision of a fully healed mind and permanent liberation from suffering.
Gen Chime invited the audience to participate in a practical exercise, chanting the mantra "OM MANI PAME HUM" for 7 minutes and observing its healing effects on the mind.
Vajrayogini KBC, located in the city of Jundiaí, is the closest Center to the Temple for World Peace at KMC Brazil, a 25-minute drive away. The Center has been operating for over 25 years with the same Resident Teacher, Gen Kelsang Chime.
SESC is a private organization supported by entrepreneurs in business, tourism, and services. It provides professionals working in these industries and their family members opportunities to improve well-being and quality of life.
