Special Half Day Course with Gen-la Kelsang Khyenrab &
Annual Tara Christmas Dinner 2025
Teachings on the actual nature of all things - emptiness
Followed by Christmas Dinner at 1:30pm
The meaning of non-dual appearance and emptiness is very profound and not easy to understand. The wisdom that realizes non dual appearance and emptiness is a higher level of the correct view of emptiness, and training in this wisdom is the quick path to enlightenment.
Following Je Tsongkhapa's teachings from the Ganden Emanation Scripture, which are the nature of the Wisdom Buddha Manjushri, Gen-la Khyenrab will today share some special insights from Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche's oral transmission which he received directly from Venerable Geshe-la.
The wisdom realizing this union is the correct view of emptiness, which is Buddha's ultimate view. Gaining an understanding of this view is essential for liberating our mind from all delusions permanently.
