Compassion isn’t something we simply aspire to — it’s a state we can actively cultivate through practice. This program invites practitioners into a powerful exploration of Lama Tsong Khapa Guru Yoga as a direct method for awakening compassion, clarity, and inner strength. In this program, we’ll explore the meaning and purpose behind deity practice, including how visualizations and mantra recitation of the Buddha, Tara, Vajrasattva, or other aspects of the enlightened mind support our lives, what is the role of guru yoga, and how these methods open the heart. Through guided sessions, discussion, and integrated Lamrim meditation, participants will learn how guru yoga becomes the unifying thread: a practice that connects us to wisdom, dissolves obstacles, and brings the vast qualities of enlightenment into our own experience. Together, we’ll build a clear and practical structure for practicing Lama Tsong Khapa Guru Yoga, understanding how it supports daily life and deepens our capacity to meet the world with kindness. Perfect for intermediate practitioners looking to strengthen their foundation and re-energize their path. A retreat to strengthen our practice and understanding will take place with Venerable Amy on July 17-19, 2026! COURSE INFORMATION: Tuesday Mar 10, 7-8:30pm EDT IN-PERSON & ONLINE Tuesdays, […]
