Teaching on Tibetan Buddhism
|
Tibetan Buddhism is about discovering the true nature of mind that has been obscured from our awareness by the habitual ways in which we use our mind. This practice has 7 fundamental aspects that refine and purify the mind. Khenpo Norgey will explain the 7 aspects of this profound practice. Avalokitesvara in the Six Realms An explanation of a practice involving the generation of compassion through meditation on the suffering experienced by beings in the 6 realms of cyclic existence. *Prerequisite Required Chöd The practice and meaning of Chöd. Khenpo Norgey will explain a practice which involves offering what we cherish the most, our own bodies. This is a method to eradicate arrogance and cut through the belief in a self which is the root of all ignorance and deluded perception. *Prerequisite Required Twelve Dependent Originations The principle of dependant arising sheds light on our past, present, future, and Karma. This teaching will explain this as a cycle of 12 links.
