Bodhisattva's joy weekend retreat

Shantideva's Benefits of Bodhichitta

Friday, Nov 26 - Sunday, Nov 28

Contemplating Shantideva’s verses on the benefits of bodhichitta, we rejoice in this precious mind and develop wishing faith, meditating on the deep wish to develop this mind and become a modern day Bodhisattva.

"Of all Dharma realizations, bodhichitta is supreme."
