Receiving blessings
Guru Yoga and Mandala Offering retreat combines two of the four great preliminary guides that we need to practice if we want to gain Mahamudra realisations – the quick path to enlightenment.
We all wish for spiritual realisations, but these depend upon creating certain inner conditions such as purifying negativity, accumulating merit, and receiving blessings.
On this retreat we focus on the preliminary practices of accumulating merit and receiving blessings. Making mandala offerings is the gateway to accumulating the collection of merit and attaining an enlightened pure land and Guru yoga is the gateway to receiving powerful blessings of all the Buddhas of the ten directions through our Spiritual Guide.
This practice is accomplished within the sadhana Offering to the Spiritual Guide – copies will be made available to use or you may purchase your own in our shop.
Please arrive 15 mins early if this is your first time at this retreat, to receive instructions as this retreat is self–guided.
You can also purchase a mandala kit from our shop if you wish – or use a plate with rice.
