During this weekend event, we will receive the Blessing Empowerment of Avalokiteshvara and engage in commentary and guided meditations of a remarkable nature. Through blissful guided meditation and practice, we will explore the meaning and application of Avalokiteshvara practice and how compassion can become a powerful force for inner change.
​
The empowerment itself is a blissful guided meditation in which we make a special connection with Avalokiteshvara and receive powerful blessings. Through these blessings, we are able to make quick progress in our spiritual practice and strengthen our capacity for compassion in daily life.
