Thursdays in 2026 | October 22, November 19, December 10
“If one meditates on the Medicine Buddha, one will eventually attain enlightenment, but in the meantime, one will experience an increase in healing powers, both for oneself and others, and a decrease in physical and mental illness and suffering.”
Medicine Buddha Teachings by Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche
This year at our annual summer retreat we had the auspicious opportunity to receive the Medicine Buddha empowerment and then learn the practice over the following week. Many of you were able to attend the empowerment and retreat. Others of you who may not have been at the retreat but have previously received the empowerment and are familiar with this practice.
Because of the incredible blessing that this practice bestows, and in response to requests for more in-person practice time together, we are happy to announce that we will be offering a monthly Medicine Buddha practice beginning in October.
Please note: This practice is open to those who have received the empowerment and instructions. It will be led by Lama Palden and Barbara Juniper each month on a Thursday evening at our Wisdom River Meditation Center in Novato.
You will need to bring your pecha text. If you do not have a text, copies will be available to purchase at the center ($30 donation).
