Weekend Away Meditation Retreats
 1) Universal Compassion (Lojong) Weekend Meditation Retreat in the Los Altos Hills with Tessa Logan - September 3-6
Hidden Villa Retreat Center
26870 Moody Road
Los Altos Hills, CA 94022
About the Retreat:
The heart of Buddhist practice is to develop pure, unconditional love and compassion for all living beings. Buddha's Lojong ("Training the Mind") teachings show us how to do exactly this. These practical and inspiring instructions reveal how to solve both our own and others' daily problems. They show us how to transform all of life's situations - both the joyous and the most challenging - into the spiritual path. During this retreat, Tessa will review the commentary given by Gen-la Kunsang to Eight Steps to Happiness by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso at the 2010 Summer Festival in England. The opportunity to practise these rare and precious teachings is not to be missed.
The retreat schedule will allow lots of time for quiet relaxation and
community, enjoying delicious meals, and exploring the beautiful
countryside in the Los Altos Hills.
Retreat sessions run from Friday evening through to 12:30 on Monday
afternoon. You are welcome to attend any portion of the retreat.
