Monday Classes
Join us for this class series that will include teachings and meditations from the extraordinary book How to Solve Our Human Problems by the great Buddhist Master Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. This book is a practical guide to overcoming frustration, anger and retaliation and developing the inner powers of patience and forgiveness, which enable spiritual transformation of suffering into personal growth.
In these classes, you will learn how to enhance self-awareness, manage stress, and regulate emotions through evidence-based techniques such as mindfulness, gratitude, and compassion. Discover the power of positive relationships, inner peace, and resilience.
DALLAS AND REGIONAL Special Events
Enjoy a peaceful weekend retreat at Lone Oak Ranch in Gainesville, Texas, just a little over an hour north of Dallas. Gen Menla will be giving talks and guided meditations that draw upon one of the most special practices within Buddhism, called “equalizing and exchanging self with others.” This practice offers key insights that can unlock the door to deep personal peace and help us become a brighter light in the world.
During this Festival, Gen-la Kelsang Jampa will grant the Blessing Empowerment of Dorje Shugden. Then, based on instructions received from Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche, he will teach on the Melodious Drum practice, the “Fulfilling and Restoring Ritual.”
In this day retreat at the Fort Worth Botanic Garden, Gen Menla will guide us in an exploration of our own potential for peace of mind by guiding meditations and giving teachings that will enable us to gain a sense of space within.
