Mahamudra Tantra

During this course, based on the brand new book by Ven. Geshe Kelsang, we will explore the extraordinary practices of Tantra, especially the training in Mahamudra, the very essence of tantric practice. Mahamudra Tantra is the swift path to enlightenment taught by Buddha. These teachings will revolutionize our outlook. If correctly practiced and understood, they will enable us to integrate even our busy urban lives with this blissful and imaginative spiritual training.
