Rigpa USA Annual Autumn Retreat
| with Alain Beauregard.
| Open to everyone.
| Can we contribute to our own healing with our minds? Can practices such as meditation, compassion, and visualization help to realize the transformative potential of illness? During this event, we will explore the path to healing through various practices that contribute to healing the whole being, based on Alain’s experience in healing terminal cancer.
We will offer practical tools and new perspectives by addressing the practices of unconditional acceptance and loving kindness, in order to develop a healthy relationship with oneself, an essential aspect of the path to healing. We will introduce and practice the powerful practice of Guru Rinpoche of Healing, combining invocation, visualization, and recitation of a sacred mantra.
We will present a new perspective on healing based on the Four Medical Tantra, the source of Tibetan Medicine. And we will focus on practice to enter gradually into the various healing practices and spend time familiarizing ourselves and experiencing them deeply.
This approach introduces a holistic view on the topic of healing that allows us to deal with all physical, mental, and emotional suffering. It considers healing from the perspective of our entire being, not just the body. Whether the body dies or not, one can still live a profound experience of healing, hence being better prepared for death.
IMPORTANT – In case of serious illness, Tibetan teachers strongly advise everyone to primarily follow an appropriate medical treatment and benefit from a spiritual approach in addition.
