Yidam Practice: From Complexity to Intimacy with Lama Yeshe Chödrön – Half-Day + Potluck Lunch
Yidam practice can appear mysterious and otherworldly — at once alluring and daunting. By engaging imagery, mantra, and symbolism as instruments, it becomes a vivid exploration of mind’s sacred creativity, supporting our path to embodying the true nature of mind.

At the beginning of each session, brief instruction to the practice of Shamatha will be given. After a 45-minute session, there will be a teaching or question-and-answer period with participants.
White Tara Morning Practice
White Tara is a beloved practice in Vajrayana Buddhism known for enhancing longevity, removing obstacles, aiding in the development of compassion, and for being a pathway to wisdom.
