About this event

  • Event lasts 3 hours 15 minutes


Half-day course with Gen Kelsang Chodor


Learn how to combine the benefits of meditation with physical exercise!

In this inspiring course, we will use the meditation practice of 'The 35 Confession Buddhas' to free our minds from negative potential (negative karma) and painful emotions, while also increasing our positive energy and general happiness.

This meditation practice can be combined with physical prostrations. The Tibetan word for prostrations is 'chag tsel' – ‘chag’ means sweeping away delusions, negative karma, and obstructions, and ‘tsel’ means requesting all good qualities. Prostration practice is therefore a two-pronged approach to increasing our positive qualities while simultaneously releasing our minds from heaviness, delusions, and obstacles.

It is not necessary for participants to perform physical prostrations in order to practice the 35 Confession Buddhas, although we will provide a demonstration on how to perform physical prostrations for those who wish to learn.

No previous experience of meditation is required. Everybody welcome!

Fees: Regular: $40 / person
Class pass holders: $20 / person ( see KMCC Class Pass Holders)
