Transformational, heart opening teachings and practices will be offered on the Buddhist teachings of Mahamudra: The Nature of Min, Non Duality, Loving Kindness and Compassion.

These teachings offer a blueprint to path and purpose, illuminating the Buddha's beautiful path of transcendence over suffering and destructive emotions, and awakening life's process to one of perfect enlightenment.

In This Retreat You Will Discover:

The Mahamudra Tradition which explores the nature of mind - thoughts, emotions, identity and consciousness itself. These instructions are the exact method used to gain liberation from suffering or enlightenment for the last several thousand years in the Buddhist tradition.

An experience of the wisdom mind that’s completely free and joyful and at ease with whatever life may bring and how to bring this experience into every part of your life.

Exact techniques from Mahamudra and Mindfulness to transform anger, anxiety, guilt and depression into inner awakening, love and compassion.

Learning that our highest happiness and enlightenment is not a far away goal, but the very nature of our mind. As we open up to this wisdom mind we discover that it is rich in qualities that bring us boundless happiness, insight, and a corresponding inner compassionate desire to help our world.

What to Expect:

Michael will break down the teachings conveniently into practical and modern terms, while never letting us forget that the point of all Dharma is nothing other than insight into the mind and heart.

Michaels approach is to offer the heart of these teachings in a clear, direct and transformative way, that awakens the natural radiance, joy and creativity of our minds. He presents the Mahamudra teachings as a means of seeing things in, as he says, “a positive and open light,” and to transform even the most difficult of situations into the path to our awakening.

Michael shares inspiring and empowering stories from his own life and the journey from being an investment banker to leaving it all behind at the height of his success and going to live in India and receive teachings from His Holiness The Dalai Lama and other great Buddhist Masters. To his life of teaching and sharing the principles of Buddhism in an approachable and modern way with thousands of students across America and the world.

This weekend will intersperse teachings, essential meditation practices, with ample time reserved for questions and answers.
