The Gabriola Ecumenical Society and The Netloft welcome back Lama Losang Samten for his third visit to our island.
With his warmth and humour Losang will invite us to enter the world of the Green Tara, one of the most beloved female awakened beings.
Tara means ‘liberator’ signaling her ability to transform our minds to become like her – reflecting tranquility, strength and compassion.
