Green Tara is the manifestation of power, courage, action — she is known as the liberator from the fears of samsara. By meditating on her, identifying with her, we manifest those very qualities in ourselves: we become our own Tara. This is the essence of the psychology of tantra.
We usually identify with our fears, anxiety, depression and the rest, believing that they are who we really are and that we’re stuck with them. But we’re not.
We can totally transform ourselves by consciously identifying our sense of self in terms of our beauty, courage, compassion and the other marvelous qualities that are at the core of our being.
Join Ven. Robina Courtin in this special online retreat focusing on the practice of Green Tara in the framework of the three principal aspects of the path: renunciation, bodhichitta, and emptiness.
This retreat will be presented via Zoom.
You must register in advance. Those who wish to attend the full course will be given a discount on registration.
You may attend individual classes.
