SUMMARY:The Spiritual Guide and the Power of Reliance: A Weekend Retreat with Geshe Thubten Sherab
DESCRIPTION:Dates: Friday Sep. 19 – Sunday Sep. 21 \nHourly Schedule Available Here. \nRegistration Required: Please Register Here \nOne of the most meaningful aspects of the Buddhist path is the relationship we cultivate with our spiritual guide\, the one who embodies the teachings and points us toward our potential for awakening. In this weekend retreat\, we will focus on deepening that connection through the practice of Ganden Lha Gyäma (The Hundreds of Deities of the Joyful Land) and the teachings on correctly relating to the spiritual guide found in The Easy Path\, a text by the First Panchen Lama that offers a concise presentation of the lamrim\, or graduated path to enlightenment\, emphasizing importance of one’s deep connection to their spiritual guide. \nThe Ganden Lha Gyäma is a profound guru yoga practice that includes visualizing Lama Tsongkhapa\, making offerings\, requesting blessings\, and receiving the inspiration of the lineage. It is a complete meditation that helps cultivate respect\, faith\, and reliance on the spiritual guide as the living embodiment of wisdom and compassion. \nThroughout the weekend\, we will engage in guided meditations\, teachings\, and group discussions designed to strengthen our connection to the spiritual guide and clarify the role that this relationship plays in our practice. \nParticipants will have opportunities to: \n\nBecome familiar with the structure and meaning of the Ganden Lha Gyama practice\nExplore essential principles of spiritual mentorship and the student-teacher relationship\nDevelop insight into the role of the spiritual guide as central to the Buddhist path\nPractice techniques for cultivating proper reliance on the guru\, joined with wisdom\n\nOpen to students of all levels\, this retreat provides a supportive and contemplative space to deepen our connection to the teachings and the inner qualities that a true spiritual guide helps us uncover. \nPrayers for Screen Share \nRetreat Text \nMorning Meditations \nThanksgiving Mandala for Screen Share
