Students from across North America will meditate on Chenrezig, the Buddha of Compassion, and recite his mantra, Om Mani Padme Hum, to cultivate compassion and create the causes for peace in the world.

The mantras we recite together until Nov 1st can be counted as part of the Global Mani Retreat and will be offered at the conclusion of the retreat for the long life of His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
