Silent retreat: The power of mantra
Saturday, August 26th
With Gen Kelsang Tabkay
In three sessions
Cost: $20 | Member Benefits Apply
Available in-person (for everyone) and online (for members)
​
This retreat is for you if you wish to:
- Unplug and quiet your mind
- Detox from technology for a day
- Develop positive, good intentions
- Learn the basics of meditation
​
Life can be hectic and overwhelming. It is easy to always feel “on” without ever taking the time to be quiet and enjoy a simple day of rest and recharging. During this one day silent retreat, you will have the opportunity to take a break and enjoy a day of silence, meditation, rest and reflection in our beautiful temple in Phoenix.
​
This retreat will focus on conjoining a powerful mantra with our breathing which can have a profound beneficial effect in a short span of time. In the meditation breaks, enjoy light vegetarian snacks and refreshments, silent reflection, or browse our bookstore.
​
Session 1: 10 - 10:45am
Session 2: 11:15 - 11:45am
Session 3: 12:15 - 1pm
