The Healing Power of Purification ~ Purification Day Retreat

With Gen Kelsang Menla

Saturday, March 23, 10:00am – 4:00pm @BKBC

In this day retreat enjoy a simple, cleansing practice for the mind which helps us to let go of mistakes of the past and move forward free from guilt and bad habits. Gen Menla will focus on the four special ways to remove negative karma known as the ‘four opponent powers’. Feel your unhappiness and obstacles fall away as you recite the mantra of Buddha Vajrasattva, the Buddha of Purification, and draw out your potential for pure happiness

Who is Buddha Vajrasattva?

Buddha Vajrasattva is a manifestation of the purified consciousness of all the Buddhas, appearing in a special form in order to help us purify our negativity.  The practice of meditation and mantra recitation of Vajrasattva is a very powerful method for purifying our body, speech, and mind.

Gen Kelsang Menla has studied under the guidance of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche for over 20 years and was requested by him to become the Resident Teacher of Kadampa Meditation Center Texas in June 2017. Gen Menla was ordained as a Kadampa Buddhist monk in 2001 and has worked and taught within the New Kadampa Tradition for many years. He brings a warm heart and joyful attitude to sharing Buddha’s teachings and the practice of meditation.
