FACING TURMOIL WITH MAHAMUDRA PITH INSTRUCTIONS
Teaching and Practice: Khenpo Gangshar's "Naturally Liberating Whatever You Meet - Instructions to Guide You on the Profound Path"
Friday, November 13, 7 pm, PST
through Sunday, November 15, 1 pm, PST
OPEN TO ALL (No Pre-requisite for attendance)
Join Khandro-la and your fellow community members in this annual online retreat exploring our response to the ancient and contemporary dilemmas from the lens of the heart instructions of Mahamudra!
We may feel as if we are in the midst of the charnel ground, one of the most terrifying and challenging times and places in human history. In that very darkness, we find the precious jewels of illuminating instructions of awakened sages as teachings for us to face this challenge. Among those jewels, Khenpo Gangshar’s Naturally Liberating Whatever You Meet shines like a diamond on the peak of jewel mountains. This teaching was given at exactly such a time of great conflict and turmoil by Khenpo Gangshar foreseeing the difficulties in Tibet in 1957. It is the mind instruction for our time, a “life-saver” for practitioners to awaken and serve.
In this year’s DW annual Fall online retreat, we will delve into this precious root text with auto-commentary. It is profound, consisting of the pith instructions of Mahamudra, and yet it is concise and easy for any aspiring student to put into practice especially in the most challenging times.
Khandro-la received the transmission and commentary from one of her Mahamudra teachers, Thrangu Rinpoche who directly received these instructions from Khenpo Gangshar. This retreat is a requirement for Cho Mastery Journey students and is open to all, new and long-term students. There is no prerequisite for attendance.
COST: Free for Cho Mastery Journey, Dakini Journey and DW Sponsor Level students
Dana offerings welcomed and encouraged in appreciation for this precious teaching.
For all others, sliding scale $95 - $145
