Good Heart, Peaceful Mind

Fri 1st - Mon 4th May 2026
Beginners Meditation Retreat with Kelsang Naljor

A good heart always gives good results. A person with a good heart possesses the
virtuous minds of love and compassion.

If we cherish others, we will naturally wish for them to experience happiness and freedom from suffering. When this strong wish or intention arises within our mind, it becomes peaceful, and we become a good person. We have so much potential for goodness and happiness within us.

In this retreat, we will learn how to cultivate this potential, the good heart and develop a peaceful mind. These beneficial intentions will gradually improve our love and compassion for others. Through understanding Buddha’s teachings, we learn how to apply them to the people with whom we spend time everyday. Then our training in developing a good heart and a peaceful mind will be grounded in our daily experience.
