Mt Martha House Public Program - March 14-16, 2003


Living and Dying: Ancient Tantric Psychology and Ritual
"A Weekend of Letting Go with the Abbot and monks of Gyuto Tantric University."
Friday 14, Saturday 15 and Sunday 16 March 2003
Mount Martha House (Melways 144, H 12)

THE GYUTO MONKS AT MOUNT MARTHA
In response to another warm and wonderful reception by the local community for the 2003 short summer visit by the Gyuto Monks, we have been able to put together a follow up program to meet the demand.

A public program with the Abbot of Gyuto - all welcome - concentrating on helping people deal with the universal issues of fear and of pain and loss associated with living and dying. From Friday evening throughout Saturday and Sunday a series of valuable talks, meditation and practice will offer people the tools to enable them to:

  • clear away painful fears
  • dissolve uncomfortable memories
  • lift depression and sadness

The weekend will culminate in the very special "Jawang Tantric Ceremony" for freeing the soul - a traditional Tibetan Buddhist ritual applied to not only those who have passed on but also those who are living with negativity, self- doubt and disease.

Friday 14 March - 7.30-9.00 pm
