Buddha of Love and Compassion ~ The Empowerment of Avalokiteshvara
Saturday, November 15th and 16th
Developing love and compassion quickens progress on our spiritual path and nurtures healthy relationships. An empowerment bestows special blessings upon us that heal our mental continuum and awaken our spiritual nature.
This weekend will also contain several teaching sessions on Powa practice, the special practice of making prayers and requests on behalf of the recently deceased.
Everyone is welcome regardless of belief; you do not need to be Buddhist to attend.
