The Buddhist Mahayana teachings show us how to soften our hearts and minds in our relationship with ourselves and with the world. These teachings put things in perspective, helping us to see that we and all beings are equal in our search for happiness, fulfillment, and peace, and therefore we all deserve to be met with warmth and kindness.

During this weekend spiritual retreat, Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche shares teachings and practices from his book Training in Tenderness: Buddhist Teachings on Tsewa, the Radical Openness of Heart That Can Change the World.
