Brief description: Teaching recorded by Sakya Dolma Phodrang, Dehradun, India and organized by Paramita, Sakya Buddhist Center, Alicante, Spain.
Event details: Taking refuge is the formal act of entrusting one’s spiritual development to the Three Precious Jewels. The nature of the refuge sought from each of the Three Precious Jewels is: in the Buddha, the fully enlightened teacher, one seeks refuge in the perfect expression of the qualities of enlightenment; in the Dharma, one seeks refuge in the realization of the path; and in the Sangha, the spiritual community, one seeks refuge in perfect companionship on the path to Buddhahood. The Tibetan tradition considers the seeking of refuge in the Three Precious Jewels as the mark of becoming a practicing Buddhist and metaphorically it is said that one becomes a child of the heart of the Buddha.

Brief description: Teaching recorded by Sera Mey monastery and organized by Partners for Tibetan Education (DC, USA).
Event details: The Medicine Buddha is the buddha of healing and medicine in Mahayana Buddhism. The Medicine Buddha is thought of as a ‘doctor’ whose related meditational practices and teachings specifically address illness and suffering. The practices of the Medicine Buddha, the Supreme Healer, are not only very powerful methods for healing and increasing healing powers both for oneself and others, but also for overcoming the inner sicknesses of attachment, hatred, and a misapprehension of the nature of reality. Thus meditation on the Medicine Buddha can help to decrease both physical and mental illness and suffering.

Event type: Webcast Event (for member-supporters)
Brief description: This is a rare opportunity to receive authoritative guidance on key practices of the Vajrayana (tantric) path. Two sessions of teachings daily, with English translation. Drupon Khenpo Lodro Namgyal is greatly admired for his skill in making even the most complex and subtle Dharma subjects inspiring and accessible to monks and his students. [This event was originally webcast in November 2019 as Event ID 228.]
Event details:
The ten day study and meditation course is the third part of a five part program titled ‘A Curriculum for Progressing towards Liberation’. For details see
www.jamgonkongtrul.org/section.php?s1=3&s2=3.
In this third ten day program, Drupon Khenpo Lodro Namgyal gives a detailed guide to the very essence of Mind Training – the creation and completion stages of Vajrayana practice. According to the Vajrayana path, the main practices of meditation, which follow the successful conclusion of the preliminary practices, include the generation and the completion stages. The initial generation stage is characterised by the meditative processes of the practitioner’s gradual identification with the form and pristine cognition of the meditational deity and it is during this stage that, with the support of mantra recitation, the elaborate visualisation of the deity is gradually generated and stabilised. The completion stage then follows, which includes techniques for controlling the energy channels and vital energies within the visualised transmuted body, with the purpose of generating an ever deepening realisation of the ultimate nature of mind. The teaching is given based on the practices related to the meditational deity Chenrezig (Avalokiteshvara), the embodiment of the enlightened compassion of all the buddhas.
Drupon Khenpo Lodro Namgyal is the Principal of Rigpe Dorje Monastic Institute for Higher Buddhist Studies at Kagyu Thekchen Ling Monastery, Lava, India, and Rigpe Dorje Institute for Buddhist Studies at Pullahari Monastery, Nepal. Studying under the guidance of The Very Venerables Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche and Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche, he was among the leading students in the first batch of graduates of the nine year Acharya Program at the Nalanda Institute at Rumtek Monastery, Sikkim, India, and was granted the position of Khenpo at his graduation in 1991. In 1997, upon completion of a three year Mahamudra retreat, he was bestowed the position of Drupon Khenpo by The Very Venerable Khenpo Tsultrim Rinpoche, who recognised in him a rare accomplishment and skill in both study and practice.
