An upcoming three-day retreat in May will be led by Tibetan tulku and meditation master Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche.
This event offers a deep exploration of two significant traditions in Tibetan Buddhism.
Ponlop Rinpoche, along with Acharya Lama Tenpa Gyaltsen, will provide a practical exploration of Mahamudra and Dzogchen, considered the highest level of spiritual growth by the Nalandabodhi Buddhist community, who are hosting the retreat.
Mahamudra, symbolizing extraordinary clarity and non-dualistic awareness, represents the culmination of practice in the New Translation Schools, while Dzogchen, the ultimate teaching of the Nyingma tradition, signifies the pinnacle of spiritual attainment.
Both traditions emphasize the luminous nature of the mind and inner awareness, providing practitioners with a direct experience of reality.
Acharya Lama Tenpa Gyaltsen, an esteemed Buddhist scholar and meditation teacher, brings his extensive monastic training and teaching experience to the retreat.
Ponlop Rinpoche, renowned for his mastery in meditation and Dharma teachings, is the founder of Nalandabodhi and the Nitartha Institute, embodying the wisdom of Tibetan Buddhism.
The retreat, open to all practitioners, offers teachings, guided meditation sessions, and simultaneous translation into English and Chinese.
