4th-6th April 2025 | with Gen-la Kelsang Kunsang

Medicine Buddha is the embodiment of the healing power of all enlightened beings. His function is to liberate living beings from outer and inner sickness. By relying upon Medicine Buddha, we can cure otherwise incurable physical disease and mental pain, as well as all other outer and inner diseases.

An empowerment is a guided tantric meditation that harnesses wisdom, imagination and the power of enlightened beings to take us to pure worlds and pure experiences. It bestows upon us special blessings that heal our mental continuum and awaken our Buddha nature.

On this special weekend course, Gen-la Kunsang will grant the blessing empowerment of Medicine Buddha and transmission of the mantra, followed by teachings on how to integrate this practice into our daily lives.
