White Tara practice is traditionally associated with long life, healing, and the removal of obstacles. Through this practice, we connect with White Tara’s blessings to help purify obscurations, pacify obstacles, and support a long and meaningful life.
From a Buddhist perspective, a long and precious human life gives us more time and favorable conditions to deepen our practice, cultivate wisdom and compassion, and be of benefit to others.
During this retreat, Khenpo Jigme will guide participants in White Tara practice through Jamgon Kongtrul’s White Tara sadhana, and offer teachings to support our connection with Tara’s enlightened compassion and activity.
The reading transmission of the sadhana will be given on Wednesday, November 18th during our 1st session.
