The Power
of Prayer

In-Depth
Workshop
Sun 18 May
10am-1pm

What does it mean to pray?
How can prayers have power?

Take the opportunity to deeply contemplate the nature of prayer, how to make our prayers effective and how to strengthen our determination to actively rely on the power of prayer.

Optional to stay for lunch & Powa prayers from 2.15pm

We see so many problems in the world nowadays, with people experiencing great difficulties. We often wonder what we as Buddhists should do to help with these problems? Venerable Geshe-la’s advice is that our job is to pray, as this is the best method to benefit others.

Now is the time to deepen our confidence in our practices to bring definite results in the future.

As Venerable Geshe-la has said with respect to prayer “I believe you will solve the world’s problems gradually.”

Everyone is welcome to attend this workshop – and also to join the Powa prayers afterwards from 2.15pm. You can also book for lunch.

PLUS you can spend Saturday night at the centre with our B&B option (see below)
