Letting Go, Moving On | Fri 4 - Sun 6 September 2026

with Resident Teacher Gen Kelsang Tara 

On this weekend retreat, discover the deep peace of mind, emotional freedom and genuine happiness that comes from learning – and in time mastering – the art of letting go.

Change and impermanence are an ever-present characteristic of human life so being able to let go and move on – from painful experiences, from good times that have come to an end and from self-limiting beliefs – is a priceless skill.

The Bliss of Perfect Freedom | Fri 6 - Sun 8 Nov 2026 (Silent)

with Resident Teacher Gen Kelsang Tara | Suitable for those with some experience of Kadampa Buddhist teachings

The bliss of perfect freedom refers to the supreme permanent inner peace of nirvana. The gateway to this experience is a mind of renunciation, a balanced, positive mind that has joyfully given up on finding happiness in this impure world and seeks to liberate ourself permanently from the sufferings of our countless future lives by abandoning our delusions.

On this silent retreat, be guided in contemplation and meditation on Buddha’s teachings to help us develop this special mind of renunciation. Following the Friday evening meal and introduction, strict silence will be kept all day Saturday through until the end of the first session on Sunday.
