There are still places left on this retreat if you'd like to come along. This is going to be a meaningful and powerful weekend retreat with our new Resident Teacher Gen Leksang.

Lamrim, or The Stages of the Path to Enlightenment, is a practical presentation of Buddhaโ€™s teachings that guides you step by step towards lasting inner peace and happiness. It forms the heart of Kadampa Buddhist meditation practice.

During this three-day retreat, based on The Mirror of Dharma by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche, you will explore how to make your meditation clear, meaningful, and transformative. Each session will gently guide you through the purpose of the meditation, its object, and the method for engaging with it, helping you to develop deeper familiarity with each Lamrim meditation.

Whether you are completely new to meditation or have an established practice, this retreat offers a valuable opportunity to deepen your understanding and experience of these timeless teachings. As your familiarity with Lamrim grows, you will gradually cultivate a more peaceful mind and discover greater stability, wisdom, and happiness in daily life.

Some exciting news shared at Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Centre at the Summer Festival this year was that each Centre can request one of our extraordinary Gen-las (very senior teacher within our tradition) to come and visit our Centre.

Last year we had the great priviledge of having Gen-la Jampa visit us in Southampton, who will be next and when?
