“We should know that learning to cherish others is the best method for establishing world peace in general, and for our own peace of mind in particular.”

‘Prayers for World Peace’, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche

What happens on ‘Prayers for World Peace' & Centre Cherishing Mornings?

Starting at 10am with an inspiring teaching from our Resident Teacher Gen Kelsang Khechog, we then engage in ‘Prayers for World Peace’, short prayers which create powerful karma for peace in our own life and in the world at large. During these prayers Gen Khechog guides a short meditation.

Then between 11am and 1pm we create even more good karma by making the centre clean, tidy and well kept so that everyone attending feels they are stepping into a special place. The positive energy accumulated by these actions can be felt by everyone and has a powerful influence on our ability to meditate effectively.

All this is followed by a light lunch for those who have time. It would be lovely if you could join us for any part of these blessed events!
