Join us for a day of contemplation and insight exploring Mahayana Buddhism’s most concise and profound wisdom text. The Heart Sutra, though brief enough to fit on two pages, contains the essence of the Buddha’s deepest teachings on the nature of reality.

What you can expect:

* Clear explanations of the Heart Sutra's key teachings on emptiness
* The 3-fold approach to learning: listening to teachings, contemplating their meaning, and meditation practice
* Guided analytical and concentration meditation
* Introduction to the Heart Sutra mantra and its significance
* Practical insights on how wisdom and compassion reinforce each other
* A supportive community environment for questions and discussion

**Who Should Attend:** Whether you’re new to Buddhism or have an established practice, this retreat provides accessible entry points alongside deeper contemplations. Basic Buddhist concepts will be reviewed, making this suitable for sincere beginners while offering experienced practitioners fresh perspectives within the structured Paramita Center approach.
