Step away from the noise of daily life and enter a space of clarity, stillness, and insight at this Mahāmudrā retreat led by Venerable Gendun. Drawing on the profound yet practical teachings of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, Venerable Gendun will gently guide participants in exploring the nature of the mind through meditation and reflection. With warmth and precision, he makes these timeless methods accessible, offering a rare opportunity to experience deeper awareness and inner stability.
This retreat is designed to support both those already familiar with meditation and those just beginning their journey. Through guided sessions, quiet contemplation, and shared practice, participants will learn how to recognise and settle the restless “monkey mind,” uncovering a more spacious and peaceful way of being. The emphasis is not on complex theory, but on direct experience—learning how to rest the mind and see it more clearly in everyday life.
