Intro. to the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment: Lamrim Meditation Retreat
Teachings and meditations for everyone with our Resident Teacher, modern Buddhist monk Gen Kelsang Norbu
Saturday, January 4, 10am – 4pm in Columbia
“Occasionally, when we have the opportunity, we should do a retreat on Lamrim.”
– The New Meditation Handbook, Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
Lamrim means “stages of the path” to enlightenment. The Lamrim meditations are presented in the order in which realizations develop, and are a complete path to enlightenment, without anything missing. If we want to make spiritual progress past reducing our gross distractions and temporarily calming our mind through breathing meditation, the Lamrim meditations are what we want.
In this retreat for all levels, Gen Norbu will introduce and guide simple breathing meditation, as well as the three principal Lamrim meditations: “Developing Renunciation”, “Meditation on the Supreme Good Heart, Bodhichitta”, and “Training in Meditation on Emptiness”.
