How to Pray | Meditation Day Course
With Guest Teacher, Gen Kelsang Norbu
Saturday, June 3rd | 2p.m. – 5p.m.
It is commonly known that prayer is an expression of faith and love. However, sometimes we wonder how to make prayers and what the practice of Buddhist prayer is like. One of the main purposes of prayer is to uplift our mind and help us receive blessings.
A blessing is a change in our heart or a transformation of our mind that comes from enlightened beings such as Buddha. This gives us inspiration, adds power and ease to our meditations and deepens our inner peace, wisdom and faith.
Join for a special event exploring the practice of prayer, learning about different types of prayers we can make, and how we can grow in our faith and connection with the sacred.
