Speaker: Gretchen Kahre-Holland. Gretchen offers an appreciation of the tremendous power of prayer to heal and transform, and guides listeners through a session of tonglen practice dedicated to our mothers. Over the years, Rinpoche has provided us with prayers to respond to difficult situations like the death of George Floyd, the fires in Colorado, and the war in Ukraine. One particular form of prayer, the tonglen practice of giving and taking, is essential to attaining enlightenment. On this Mother's Day Gretchen reminds us that, over the course of our countless lifetimes, all sentient beings have been our mothers. Soliciting specific prayers from listeners, she leads a guided tonglen practice devoted to benefiting our all our mothers.
