Two Day Retreat - Request to the Holy Spiritual Guide Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso from his Faithful Disciples
On September 17 our most precious Spiritual Guide Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche showed the manner of passing peacefully into the clear light.
Venerable Geshe-la requested that for auspiciousness at this time all Kadampa centres around the world engage in a short retreat using his special prayer, Request to the Holy Spiritual Guide Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche from his Faithful Disciples.
Akshobya Kadampa Buddhist Centre will close on Tuesday 20 and Wednesday 21 to engage in this retreat. There will be no General Program (GP) class on both these days.
You who take on the great responsibility of caring in every way for the doctrine and migrators,
Giving to everyone equally, without discrimination, the precious opportunity to accomplish one’s own purpose and the purpose of others;
O Guru Sumati Buddha Heruka,
Please remain at my heart forever,
So that all directions will be pervaded by your matchless, excellent deeds.
At Akshobya Kadampa Buddhist Centre, on both days there will be four sessions of retreat using the sadhana The Hundreds of Deities of the Joyful Land According to Highest Yoga Tantra and the special request prayer Request to the Holy Spiritual Guide Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche from his Faithful Disciples.
The full retreat will be held in-person at Akshobya Kadampa Buddhist Centre. We will live-stream the first two retreat sessions from Manjushri, our Mother Centre, on a large tv screen.
