years as an annual retreat. This weekend retreat will be the second in the series continuing from last year’s
week long retreat. You may attend even if you missed last year. Another weekend continuation will be Nov 30-
Dec 2, 2012. This Buddhist Shedra of teachings gives students a rare opportunity to learn how to cultivate the
mind of enlightenment while generating the qualities of love, compassion, generosity and patience.
The retreat will take place at the Ewam Tibetan Buddhist Center at 180 S. 3rd St., West in
