A Swift Path to a Fearless Life
With Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong, NKT General Spiritual Director.
Gen-la Dekyong is the most senior teacher of the New Kadampa Tradition and teaches very rarely in the Nordic Region.
Don't miss this wonderful opportunity to receive teachings from this deeply inspiring and experienced Spiritual Guide. Everyone is welcome.
This annual regional festival is a wonderful opportunity to receive practical and inspiring teachings on Modern Buddhism based on the teachings of world renowned meditation master and scholar Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche. Also to enjoy peaceful meditations in the company of people from throughout the Nordic Region.
At this special event we will receive the empowerment of Arya Tara, a female Buddha who is the manifestation of the ultimate wisdom of all the Buddhas. The empowerment is a blissful guided meditation that helps us draw closer to Arya Tara and the good qualities she embodies.
We will also receive instructions on the transference of consciousness practice, pathway to heaven, which will enable us to transfer our consciousness to the Pure Land of Buddha Tara without abandoning our present body. Through engaging in this practice, we can purify our negativity and delusions, gain control over our future rebirth and prevent rebirth in samsara. Eventually we will attain enlightenment, a state of permanent inner peace and freedom.
