with Kelsang Chokyi
Buddhist nun and Resident Teacher at AKBC

According to Buddha, all disease and suffering, both mental and physical, are caused by delusions—negative states of mind such as attachment, anger, and ignorance. We are unaware of how these minds impact others and erode our own well being. By connecting with Medicine Buddha we can experience the pure nature of our mind and thus begin to heal ourself and others. 

The Empowerment is a beautiful guided meditation during which we receive the blessings of Medicine Buddha, the embodiment of all enlightened healing energy. Kelsang Chokyi will guide the meditation then explain the profound tantric practice, known as self-generation, through which we awaken our own potential to become an enlightened healing Buddha. 

Saturday afternoon and Sunday will include Commentary on the many good qualities of Medicine Buddha and your special connection with him along with a Guided Medicine Buddha Practice.
