Keeping an Open Heart in Difficult Time |
| Rinpoche spoke to how we can transform all circumstances—difficult or favorable—into opportunities for cultivating wisdom, compassion, love, and joy. |
The Mahamudra Lineage Prayer |
| Unwavering attention is the body of meditation, it is taught. Whatever arises is the fresh nature of thought. To the meditator who rests there in naturalness, Grant your blessings that meditation is free from intellectualization. Rinpoche commented on this and the core teachings found in the prayer common to all those who practice in the Kagyu monasteries and meditation centers around the world. |
Refuge Vow & Amitabha Empowerment |
| The teachings will culminate with the offering of the Amitabha Empowerment to benefit others and seek awakening on their behalf. The Refuge Vow ceremony was open both to participants and observers. The Refuge Vow is a prerequisite for participating in the Empowerment. |
