LOSAR Meditation & Celebration

Weekly Guided Meditation sessions to decrease stress, increase energy and cultivate awareness with inner peace of mind in a supportive group space.
2150 – The Year of the Water Rabbit
Whatever the New Year brings will be largely down to us. Therefore we can resolve to use our precious human life well, to develop ourselves and benefit others as best we can. As our Founder, the incomparable Akong Tulku Rinpoche said:
“When we are kind and compassionate, we are following not one but all religions, and become worthy human beings.”
