In this retreat Khandro Rinpoche will help us deepen our practice. Spirituality is the inner aspect of our being and developing this awareness makes us able to deal with life’s sufferings courageously. Khandro-la will teach Avalokiteshvara from the mind treasure of her great-grandfather Togden Shakya Shri. As an experienced lay practitioner Khandro-la shows us how to incorporate our spiritual focus and practices into our everyday lives.
