Harmonizing with the Unconditional Love and Wisdom of Our Buddha Nature

Harmonizing with the Unconditional Love and Wisdom of Our Buddha Nature

Monday, June 1 · 4:00 AM

Led by dharma teacher and scholar John Makransky, this seven-day retreat at Samye Hermitage New York (Cooperstown, NY) draws on Tibetan Buddhist perspectives to guide participants into direct contact with the unconditional love and wisdom already present within them. These innate capacities—awareness, warmth, compassion—are always available but often hidden by habitual thought and reaction. Through three modes of practice (receptive, responsive, and integrated), participants will learn to access and trust these natural qualities. The retreat includes guided meditation sessions, dharma teachings, periods of silence, and communal practice. Open to practitioners of all backgrounds. Located at 412 Glimmerglen Road, Cooperstown, NY.
