Milarepa Day

Sat February 27th: 8:30 AM - 6:00 PM
Price: $10 Members ($10 General Public)

In Room(s): Tantra Shrine Room

The primary focus of the day is reading aloud The Rain of Wisdom: The Vajra Songs of the Kagyu Gurus, a text translated under the guidance of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche. The Rain of Wisdom consists of stories of the great meditators of the Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. By reading aloud the stories of these teachers we simultaneously invoke their presence and learn from their example.

8:30 AM - Instructions and morning chants

9:00 AM: Sitting
