The Blessing Empowerment of Buddha Vajrasattva & Teachings on Purification Practice
𝟮𝟴 - 𝟯𝟬 𝗡𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥 at Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Centre

One of the most powerful methods Buddha taught to purify our mind is the meditation and recitation of Vajrasattva. Through this practice, we can swiftly and joyfully cleanse our mind of all impurity and eventually become a pure being, abiding in a pure world with the power to draw others to the bliss of perfect freedom.

Gen-la Dekyong will grant Vajrasattva empowerment and share with us how to purify our mind and our world. Following the special weekend course, there will be an opportunity to do retreat on the practice of Vajrasattva.

‘Attaining enlightenment is very simple; all we need to do is apply effort to purifying our mind.’
