Dear Dharma Friends,

This week, Wednesday evening at 7pm is Kusali Chöd practice for Dakini day.  Ven. Khenpo Choephel Rinpoche will bestow the lung (reading transmission / permission) for this important practice prior to the session. On Saturday, Khenpo will offer basic Dharma teachings and will be available for Q & A. On Sunday we will be doing a purification practice and meditation with Khenpo.

 

May the illumination of wisdom teachings shine through all obscurations of our mind, and may our practices be beneficial to all beings!

 

Wednesday, October 15, 7pm. Kusali Chöd practice. Online and in person. Kusali Chöd (cutting through) is an internal practice to offer one’s body as nectar to the beings in the six realms in order to cut through one’s self-grasping and self-cherishing, and to accumulate merit.  This is an important practice to help practitioners abandon ego and all forms of attachment, the root of our suffering.  This is also a great purification practice to purify our negative karma.  Ven. Khenpo Choephel Rinpoche will lead.   Join us on Zoom.

Saturday, October 18, 10am. Basic Dharma Talk. Online and in person. Ven. Khenpo Choephel Rinpoche will give a talk on basic Buddhist topics and will instruct on Shamatha (calm abiding) meditation. Following that, a simple visualization and short recitation (Chenrezig or Buddha Shakyamuni). Khenpo will be available for our questions & answers. Join us on Zoom.

 

Sunday, October 19, 10 am. Online and in person. On Sunday we will be doing a purification practice and meditation with Khenpo. Join us on Zoom.
