A special relaxing mid-Winter retreat on exploring your inner potential, a refreshing and lightweight deep-dive into the power of your mind.  Each of us has within us a deep reservoir of inner peace - all we need to do is learn how to access it.  This means we have to gently develop and maintain new habits of mind to tap into this infinite resource. 

On this special Christmas holiday retreat Gen la Khyenrab will guide us through talks and meditations which can change our perspective and ways of thinking so we can discover our own hidden potential and find real inner peace and tranquility.

Exploring the inner space at the interface of our mind and reality we can find new depths of experience. Using these life-changing methods we can enrich all our daily activities and reach new heights of meaning. 

"...if we identify ourself as a mere appearance that is not other than the emptiness of all phenomena, the mere absence of all phenomena that we normally perceive, our mistaken appearance will reduce and finally cease completely. Then we will experience the supreme happiness of nirvana or enlightenment."

Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche
