Offering Our Faith Retreat

During January we will have a precious opportunity to engage in retreat focusing on reciting the name mantra of our precious Spiritual Guide Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche, the founder of the New Kadampa Tradition. This is the first time we have had the opportunity to offer this retreat at KMC Wales.

The retreat will consist of four sessions each day of chanted prayers and recitation of our precious Guru’s name mantra. Sessions can be attended on a drop-in basis, and for those who have completed counting the retreat will conclude with Vajradaka burning offerings. Everyone is welcome.

“It is said that if we recite our Spiritual Guide’s mantra with faith this is far more powerful than reciting any other mantra”
