“In a speedy and aggressive culture, we need different principles to live by—bravery and insight. The first moment of bravery is building trust in the mind, which we do in meditation. When we know how to create peace in our own mind, we can transform the world.”
—Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche

Join Sakyong Mipham and Pema Chödrön—two of the most engaging spiritual leaders of our time—for five powerful days of teachings, meditation, and discussion. New and experienced meditators are warmly invited to this gathering in Halifax, where we’ll discover ways to change the world by changing our minds.


“Master warriors like Mother Teresa and Martin Luther King recognized that the greatest harm comes from our own aggressive minds. Like them, we can learn to relate to ourselves and our world by training in awakening our courage and love.“
—Pema Chödrön
“Transforming our world is about how we live our everyday life.”
—Acharya Adam Lobel
