Jewel Heart Tibetan Buddhist Center and our Spiritual Director, Gelek Rimpoche, invite you to our Memorial Day Weekend Retreat at the picturesque Garrison Institute in Upstate New York.

The focus of the retreat will be the famous Buddhist text, the Heart Sutra, heart essence of the Buddha’s teachings.

Addressing how the relationship between our body and mind creates our everyday sense of existence, Gelek Rimpoche will discuss the deeper meaning of reality presented in the Heart Sutra and show that it can transform us and our individual relationships with others, with our environment and the entire universe.

Through the transcendental wisdom of the Heart Sutra we will discover how an ordinary individual can develop into an extraordinary, fully enlightened being– the highest possible level of human development.

Please join us for these inspirational teachings!
