Time: 7:30 pm PT
Led by: Laura Ellis
In this class, we will go page by page through the Sunday morning
Chenrezi practice book, An Ocean of Compassion: Meditation on Chenrezi. We will explain the meaning of the text, the visualizations, and the hand gestures (mudras) that should be used in each section. Chenrezi is the key spiritual practice at Sakya Monastery and blesses us to become kinder and more compassionate, certainly a worthy and noble goal. You can become enlightened by doing just this one spiritual practice.
