Wisdom gives us clarity and insight and, like an inner spiritual guide, helps us to act thoughtfully, skillfully, and meaningfully in daily life. Since all our negative minds are based upon the opposite of wisdom – confusion – everyone needs to develop wisdom. Wisdom will never deceive us. It is our inner Spiritual Guide who leads us to the correct path. Through receiving blessings of the wisdom Buddha Manjushri, we can develop wisdom in our own mind and in this way find the true meaning of our human life. What is an empowerment? “An empowerment bestows upon us special blessings that heal our mental continuum and awaken our Buddha nature.” — Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche On this special day Kadam Birgit will grant the blessing empowerment of Wisdom Buddha Manjushri who is the embodiment of the wisdom of all Enlightened beings and give teachings on the Treasury of Wisdom. The empowerment and teachings are open to everyone from complete beginners to those with previous experience.
