SUMMARY:Kadampa U.S. Festival at IKRC Grand Canyon
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Kadampa Temple for World Peace in Northern Arizona. This special week-long event is also available online! \nAbout the Teachings\nFear and anxiety plague our world. As we deal with everything from minor insecurities and social anxiety to concerns about major world events\, it’s hard to find a sense of safety and tranquility. Even worse\, our fears often stop us from doing what’s right for ourselves and others. During this US Festival we will discover how to develop a spiritual power by relying on Buddha Vajrapani that will help us break out of this fearful state into a courageous\, empowered attitude. We will also learn how to harness the five forces\, a special inner tool\, to bring about radical\, positive change in our life. \nBuddha Vajrapani is the Buddha of spiritual power. With the development of spiritual power we possess the confidence\, inner strength and skill not only to take on and defeat our own delusions\, but to be of great benefit in helping free others from their delusions as well. Nothing could be more meaningful. \nThe empowerment is a beautiful and inspiring guided meditation and ritual in which we are introduced to Buddha Vajrapani from whom we then receive many blessings\, adding great power to our own practice as well as sowing seeds for our future attainment of enlightenment. \nClick here to see the schedule

SUMMARY:Heart Jewel Prayers
DESCRIPTION:Join us In Person \nIf you enjoy meditating with others\, chanted meditations are a great opportunity to engage in group meditation. These chanted meditations are also known in Sanskrit as pujas\, meaning â€œofferingâ€; and the prayers we recite are sadhanas\, meaning â€œmethods for receiving attainmentsâ€. \nOur prayers are in English. We request the blessings\, protection and guidance of the holy beings. We can make requests for ourselves or for others who need help or protection. These spiritual practices create a strong connection with the Buddhas\, and help us purify our negativity and fill our mind with positive\, healing energy. \nHeart Jewel puja includes a period of silence for meditation on Lamrim. By relying upon this practice\, we can purify negativity\, accumulate merit\, and receive blessings. In this way\, we will naturally accomplish all the realizations of the stages of the path to Enlightenment and attain a very special Dharma wisdom. \nAll chanted prayers are free.

SUMMARY:Wednesday Evening Meditation Class
DESCRIPTION:De-clutter Your Mind\n\nWe usually feel great satisfaction when our kitchen\, office\, garage or bedroom is clean and tidy. But what about our mind? \nMeditation can help us balance our mind as we navigate the world with all its stress and stimulation. Buddha taught that the mind is always moving\, flitting from thought to thought without control. They might seem harmless\, but these fleeting thoughts make our inner world cluttered and unpeaceful. \nEach Wednesday evening class begins with a guided breathing meditation and culminates with a second meditation based upon the evening’s topic. Perfect for beginners or those with meditation experience. Open to everyone. \nPlease arrive a few minutes early to settle. \n
