Finding Meaning & Peace Through Wisdom
Gen Kelsang Chokyi, Resident Teacher, will give the blessing empowerment of Great Mother Prajnaparamita, a special transmission of inspiration and insight from this enlightened spiritual guide. By awakening our limitless potential, we can discover profound meaning and deep peace in our life through developing special wisdom motivated by compassion.
What is an empowerment?
An empowerment is a beautiful guided meditation through which we receive the enlightened wisdom of a Buddha and begin to actualize our own limitless potential.
Who is the Great Mother Prajnaparamita?
Buddha Prajnaparamita is a manifestation of the Perfection of Wisdom. The word “prajna” means wisdom and “paramita” means perfection. She is called “The Great Mother” because all Buddhas are born from this wisdom which is associated with deep compassion for all living beings.
During this empowerment day, Gen Chokyi will explore The Yoga of The Great Mother Prajnaparamita sadhana.
