Living Fearlessly Post Spring Festival Retreat | Sat 1 & Sun 2 June | 10am-6.15pm | Morden 
In these puzzling and often troubling times, having powerful spiritual protection is a must. Enlightened beings help us by appearing as spiritual guides who show us the path to lasting freedom and happiness and as Dharma Protectors who create all the conditions we need to stay on this path. Dorje Shugden’s main job is to provide a forcefield of protection to keep us safe from all outer and inner obstacles. As the embodiment of the wisdom of all Buddhas, he also opens our wisdom eyes so that we can transform whatever is happening in our lives into fuel for our Dharma practice, completing our spiritual path without ever giving up.

Dorje Shugden is a supreme spiritual friend, a powerful ally in difficult times. Through relying on him, our innate potential for wisdom, love, and spiritual power will constantly grow. We will amass the confidence and conditions needed to become the positive, happy, and beneficial person we wish to be.

In this Post Spring Festival Retreat, Gen Kelsang Demo will guide meditations that help us draw closer to the Wisdom Protector Dorje Shugden. This is a wonderful opportunity to deepen our experience of teachings given at the Spring Festival on the precious Extensive Protector Puja “Melodious Drum”.

Everyone is welcome to attend this retreat, it’s not necessary to have attended the Spring Festival in order to join, but we recommend it. If you wish you can find out more about attending the International Spring Festival in person or online here: https://kadampafestivals.org

Went for a drop in this lunchtime and would recommend, everyone was really friendly and the meditation was really relaxing. I’ve never been before and it was completely suitable as a beginner!

Each time I visit this place I feel very welcomed and inspired. Lots of what is said is so useable for daily life - for example how we can use patience to no longer get stressed out in traffic jams , or how we can live in the moment to let go of past stress and worries and simply enjoy .
