The Path to Awakening

In the 11th century, the great Indian master Atisha was invited to Tibet to restore the clarity and authenticity of the Buddha’s teachings. From this mission emerged the revered Seven Points of Mind Training (Lojong) — a treasury of practical wisdom designed to transform everyday challenges into opportunities for awakening.

In this compelling retreat, you will explore these timeless teachings as living practices for modern life. Accessible to people of all backgrounds, the training offers powerful methods to work skillfully with thoughts, emotions, and reactions, cultivating compassion, resilience, and clarity. Long before modern psychology, these Indo-Tibetan contemplative practices revealed how the mind can be trained to reduce suffering and uncover deep well-being — insights now echoed by contemporary science.

These teachings serve as a map to the “jewel within” — your innate Buddha Nature, or Divine Presence. By learning to meet both adversity and good fortune with awareness, you can step off the exhausting cycle of stress and reactivity, transforming life itself into a path of growth and awakening.

Presented by an experienced spiritual care provider and meditation teacher, this course is offered not only as philosophy but as embodied practice, creating a calm, supportive atmosphere for genuine inner change.
