Spring Festival 2026 Day 6
May 27, 2026
Yesterday in the winter wonderland of IKRC Grand Canyon Gen-la Jampa helped us to start the new year with a peaceful mind of compassion.
Gen-la gave a short talk on the benefits of compassion and then guided us in prayers and meditations on the Buddha of compassion.
"In this way we began 2021 with a special, pure intention to improve ourselves and benefit others. How wonderful.
"Happy New Year everyone!"
The temple is full of dedicated practitioners from around the world meditating in two final sessions on deepening our mind of compassion until it transforms into the compassion of a Buddha. In this way we awaken our Buddha nature - wishing to attain Enlightenment for all living beings.
