About the course:

On this meditation day retreat, Gen Osung will guide the beautiful meditations on taking and giving. 

These meditation practices are some of the most powerful methods for both opening our hearts, improving our love and compassion, and an ancient, powerful healing practice for healing both our body and mind.

Geshe-la says in Universal Compassion:

‘The practice of taking and giving is extremely helpful in all cases of degenerative illness.’

Everyone is welcome to come along and experience these healing meditations.

“There are four main benefits of the meditations on taking and giving: they are powerful methods (1) to purify the potentials of non-virtuous actions that cause us to experience serious diseases such as cancer; (2) to accumulate a great collection of merit; (3) to ripen our potential to be able to benefit all living beings; and (4) to purify our mind. 

When we purify our mind through the practices of taking and giving, every spiritual realization will grow easily in our mind. Through contemplating the four main benefits of meditating on taking and giving, we should encourage ourself to practise these meditations sincerely”
