The Manjushri Prayer and Sadhana for Wisdom: A Workshop with Lama Kathy

We all need more wisdom in our lives. We will learn chants of Manjushri Bodhisattva to develop more of our inner wisdom qualities.
About this Event

IN-PERSON and ON ZOOM!

We all want and need wisdom in our lives. It is said that when the Buddha attained his spiritual awakening, he realized what are called the Two Wisdoms - the Wisdom that Knows How Things Appear, and the Wisdom that Knows How Things Really Are.

But how do we as beginning students of the Buddha approach these two wisdoms? How do we know what to study, and how to study?

Using a teaching by KTC Founder Khenpo Karthar Rinpoche as a guide, Lama Kathy Wesley will tell the story of Manjushri, the bodhisattva of wisdom, and will introduce a short prayer and sadhana recited daily by monks and nuns and schoolchildren throughout the Tibetan Buddhist world.

These prayers are said to produce good conditions (both inner and outer) for the study of dharma and the development of wisdom.

The workshop is being held to introduce these prayers, which will be recited at 10 AM Every Fourth Sunday at KTC starting on Nov. 23, 2025.
