The Mahayana practice of the Medicine Buddha is said to be not only a very powerful method for increasing healing powers for oneself and others, but also for overcoming the inner sickness of attachment, hatred, and ignorance. To meditate on and chant the Medicine Buddha mantra can help decrease physical and mental illness and suffering.
On Saturday, June 8th and Sunday, June 9th, we will be honoring the donation of a lovely Thanka, a sacred painting depicting the Blue Medicine Buddha, a Tibetan symbol of healing and wellbeing. Join us Saturday Evening from 6:00 - 7:30, for a reception to view this exquisite piece of Tibetan Art, learn about its provenance, and meet other local practitioners. The reception is open to all and light vegetarian hors d’oeuvres and non-alcoholic beverages will be available. Feel free to bring a friend but please help us get a head count by e-mailing our admin@bhavanacommunity.org to let us know you are coming.
The next day, on Sunday afternoon from 2 - 4:30, Kathleen Rankhorn and Rhea Colmar will be co-presenting a healing workshop to introduce the teachings and practices from the Blue Medicine Buddha tradition that you can use in your own healing journey. Both Kathleen and Rhea are accomplished practitioners in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition and have been very generous with their time. I hope you will join us for this special occasion. The cost for the workshop is $40.00, however, no one will be turned away for lack of funds although enrollment is limited so sign up soon by clicking HERE or contact us if you would like scholarship funds.
