The Four Seals of Mahamudra
Mahamudra is a sanskrit term composed of two parts: ‘maha’ meaning ‘great’ and ‘mudra’ meaning ‘seal’. The Four Seals are four special insights into reality that enable us to experience the liberating wisdom of Mahamudra, the true nature of things.
During this special event with guest teacher, Gen Samten Kelsang, we will explore profound topics such as impermanence, the nature of the mind, the source of suffering and the truth of ultimate reality, emptiness. Through teachings and guided meditations, we will start to experience the peace and freedom that comes from this wisdom.
