Discover Inner Space Beginner Workshop

Do you often become overwhelmed with the pace of modern life? Sometimes it feels like there are too many things to think about and too many things to accomplish. Meditation reduces distractions and creates a tranquil inner space in the mind. With this experience of inner space, there is room in your mind to think. You feel rejuvenated, and then you can accomplish all your goals successfully with ease.

Spring Fair & Open House

Universe in the Palm of your Hand Retreat
March 7 - 13 with Introduction on March 7th at 5:00pm
Buddha explained that the universe is merely a projection of our own mind. A mandala is a universe that appears to a completely pure mind. By meditating on these visualizations we purify our own experience and create the potential to experience these worlds in the future. By mentally ofering the mandala to our Spiritual Guide, we accumulate immeasurable amounts of good fortune and positive energy.
There will be three or four sessions of this practice in each day of the retreat. Feel free to stop by for as many sessions as you wish.
