On Thursdays when Jewel Heart retreats in the US are not being held, Jewel Heart New York will feature group practice sessions, led by senior students.
The October 10 and 24 sessions as well as November 7 will be a Medicine Buddha practice. Medicine Buddha is an extremely powerful form of enlightened energy directed at helping us to accomplish our spiritual goals as well as healing. This practice benefits those who are ill and even those who have died.
October 3 and 31, November 14 and 21, and December 12 will feature a White Tara practice. White Tara, healing protector and mother goddess of Tibetan Buddhism, is called upon around the world by those in need of healing guidance and safe-keeping. Kyabje Gelek Rimpoche, like many Gelugpa lamas, has a particularly close connection with White Tara and has taught numerous facets of the White Tara practice over the past 3 decades in the West.
