Centers and students from the south of Germany, with additional attendees from Berlin, Hamburg, Leipzig and Switzerland, gathered for a beautiful weekend with a very, very blessed empowerment of our Holy Mother and Wisdom Dakini, Arya Green Tara and inspiring teachings on the powa practice of Tara and how we can learn to discriminate mere temporary liberation from particular problems from actual liberation or nirvana.

Thank you Gen Kelsang Ananda, our precious National Spiritual Director, for sharing profound teachings from Venerable Geshe-la on five basic understandings we need to develop so we can begin to build our own path to liberation within our own mind. Thank you Gen Kelsang Lochog, Resident Teacher of KMC Freiburg, for guiding lovely, lighthearted but clear morning meditations, and to everyone who contributed to the smooth running of this course!

And especially: Thank you from the depths of our heart, Venerable Geshe-la, our precious Spiritual Guide and Founder, for being the source of this meaningful event. You were definitely there with us! Even though a weekend quickly passes, everyone seemed to use the time well to relax, focus on Dharma and enjoy the company of our Sangha community.
