About Be Wise, Go Kind!

What is Be Wise, Go Kind, Live Fully?

Explore the meaning and purpose of life during our annual program. Get to know yourself and discover deeper insight into reality. Connect with your heart of kindness and learn to live fully. Each annual event focuses on a specific topic, while offering an opportunity to listen, contemplate, meditate and embrace each moment for the benefit of ourselves and others. 

Strengthening our Wings of Wisdom & Compassion

Today suffering comes in many forms: war, climate change, social inequality, political division, and more. How can we respond skillfully to the many challenges we face? How can we take actions to reduce our suffering and the suffering of those around us?

The purpose of the annual Be Wise, Go Kind retreat is to offer practical methods for individuals to strengthen their innate wisdom and compassion in order to live those values more fully in the world. Wisdom and compassion are like two wings of a bird, both are needed for the bird to fly freely in a space of freedom, peace, and kindness.

How to change the world?

We hosted our first Be Wise Go Kind Online Retreat in 2020. At that time, Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche pointed out that the opportunity for change can come at the most unexpected time. “We never know when the opportunity to succeed in our life’s goals will knock on our door,” he said. Difficult times, challenges in our society, uncertainty, can all become opportunities to create new beginnings for our world. 

It is vital for us to take advantage of every opportunity and truly embrace and appreciate change. How? For this we need to approach life with wisdom, kindness, and applicable skills. When we have the right balance of these three, we can overcome any obstacle and we can succeed in our life’s goals and live fully. 

If we apply the various methods of Being Wise, Going Kind and Living Fully, we not only bring more joy and happiness to our own lives but also to those near to us. It can be transformative. We can contribute towards the possibility of changing the world – together.
