FRENCH FESTIVAL 2022
POWER, INSPIRATION AND BLESSINGS
At the 2022 French Festival, hosted by Kadampa Meditation Centre France, Gen-la Kelsang Thubten granted the empowerment of Buddha Vajrapani, the Buddha of Spiritual Power, and gave teachings on the power of the mind.
Following the sadhana, The Yoga of Buddha Vajrapani, Gen-la taught first on Guru Yoga, giving priceless advice on how to rely upon Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche now that his emanation body has dissolved.
BLESSING EMPOWERMENT OF BUDDHA VAJRAPANI
Gen-la then explained how through relying upon Buddha Vajrapani we can attain the union of great bliss and emptiness, eliminate the inner enemy of our delusions and pacify obstructing spirits.
As always Gen-la's teachings were light and humorous while presenting profound Dharma in a very practical way.
Between sessions and for the closing retreat the meditations were led by Gen Kelsang Eupame, National Spiritual Director of France.
"The entire Festival was pervaded by joy and laughter, and everyone came away feeling inspired, encouraged and deeply refreshed.
"Thank you Gen-la for such a meaningful and joyful festival, thank you Gen Eupame for such deep meditations, but most of all thank you Venerable Geshe-la for your continued guidance and blessings making such a precious event possible."
