How to Build Self Confidence: a meditation workshop

Self-confidence is not the same as self-importance—in fact, it’s quite the opposite. When we’re caught up in grasping at a fixed sense of self, we often find ourselves competing with others, constantly comparing and positioning. This undermines true confidence, distracting us from the meaningful work of personal growth and service to others. This retreat offers a meaningful opportunity to step back, reconnect with your inner strength, and build authentic confidence from within. In this workshop, we’ll explore spiritual self-confidence, also known as non-deluded pride—a healthy, grounded sense of self rooted in our potential rather than our current limitations.&nbsp; This is known as “pride with respect to our potential”—a deep trust in our Buddha nature: our capacity for lasting happiness, complete freedom, universal love, and profound wisdom.&nbsp; In recognizing this, we begin to relate not to who we are now, but to who we can become. What to Expect: <ul><li>Guided meditations to cultivate inner calm and clarity</li><li>Practical teachings on developing spiritual self-confidence</li><li>Reflections on Buddhist wisdom and how it applies to daily life</li><li>Time for discussion, questions, and connecting with others</li></ul>Location: This event will be held at Kadampa Meditation Center Boston, located at&nbsp;2298 Massachusetts Ave. in Cambridge, just a few blocks from the Davis Square T stop.

A Life of Kindness: Becoming a Bodhisattva

What if we chose to live not just for ourselves, but for the benefit of the whole world? By embracing a life of kindness, we can become a modern-day Bodhisattva—someone who, guided by universal compassion, dedicates their life to helping others find lasting happiness and freedom.&nbsp; This radical shift in perspective transforms our everyday actions into a powerful spiritual journey rooted in love, courage, and deep inner purpose. Bodhisattvas understand that the most profound way to benefit others is by developing their own inner strength and wisdom. They focus on perfecting the six essential qualities—generosity, moral discipline, patience, joyful effort, concentration, and wisdom—until they reach enlightenment and can help others effortlessly, all the time. Join us for this inspiring retreat where we will explore what it means to live with compassion, courage, and purpose. What to Expect: <ul><li>Guided meditations to cultivate compassion and inner peace</li><li>Teachings on the Bodhisattva path and the six perfections</li><li>Practical advice for applying these qualities in daily life</li><li>A warm, welcoming space for spiritual reflection</li><li>Light refreshments during the break</li><li>Suitable for both beginners and experienced meditators</li></ul>This retreat offers a meaningful opportunity to connect with your heart’s potential and take a step toward living a truly compassionate life.

Je Tsongkhapa Empowerment: The union of sutra and tantra

Je Tsongkhapa is a manifestation of Wisdom Buddha Manjushri, celebrated for showing how to integrate the profound teachings of Sutra and Tantra into a single, unified path. His legacy offers a clear and practical approach to practicing Dharma, even in these turbulent and spiritually degenerate times. In this special event, Gen Khedrub will grant the empowerment of Je Tsongkhapa, creating a powerful connection to his enlightened wisdom. This empowerment is a doorway to transforming our mind through blessings and inspiration, helping us deepen our Dharma practice and navigate the challenges of modern life with clarity and purpose. Following the empowerment, Gen Khedrub will offer a commentary on the Heart Jewel practice—a rich and accessible daily meditation that helps us receive ongoing guidance and protection. Through this practice, we learn how to rely on our Spiritual Guide, accumulate merit, purify negativity, and receive powerful blessings that support our journey to enlightenment. This event is a rare opportunity to engage with the union of Sutra and Tantra in a living, practical way—and to step onto the path of the modern-day Bodhisattva with confidence and joy.
