SUMMARY:Buddha Nature: Our Original Purity
DESCRIPTION:In person at KCC and over Zoom \nFriday: 6:30–8:30pm\nSaturday and Sunday: 10:00–12:00pm\, 2:30–4:00pm\, and 4:30–6:00pm \nKagyu Changchub Chuling is thrilled to announce that Drupon Khenpo Lodrö Namgyal has accepted our invitation to visit North America and will be teaching at KCC over two weekends to guide and inspire our Dharma practice. Each weekend of teaching will have its own distinct theme\, and attendance can be for one or both of the weekends. The event will be translated by Lama Yeshe of Prajna Fire. \nThe teachings on buddha nature tell us that the nature of the mind of all beings is exactly the same as the nature of mind that Buddha Shakyamuni discovered some 2\,600 years ago. Upon his realization\, the Buddha described his experience when proclaiming: “Profound\, peaceful\, beyond concepts\, luminous\, and uncompounded; I have discovered this nectar-like truth…”. \nThis means that our process of awakening is not about searching for something that exists outside of us. Awakening simply entails progressively removing the veils and misconceptions that keep us from directly experiencing our deepest\, truest nature. All of the teachings of Buddhism are supports for priming our being to be more capable of seeing what we always have been. \nFor information on the second weekend of teachings\, Mind Training: Radical Openheartedness as Transformation\, click here. \n  \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER \nDrupon Khenpo Lodrö Namgyal\n“Drupon Khenpo” is actually two titles denoting his spiritual training. He first earned the title of khenpo after excelling in scholarship as part of the initial class of enrollees at Rumtek Monastery’s monastic college or shedra. He subsequently entered the traditional three-year retreat under the direction of Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche at Pullahari Monastery. Upon completion of these three years of meditation practice\, he was appointed drupon or “retreat master” by Rinpoche. Thus\, Drupon Khenpo’s teachings combine his vast scholarship with deep experience in meditation\, both of which are enhanced by his joyous and humorous personality. Upon his retirement from leading annual classes and retreats for foreigners at Pullahari Monastery in Nepal\, Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche appointed Drupon Khenpo as his successor\, and he has been teaching in this capacity since 2005.\n\nVIEW EVENT DETAILS: https://kcc.org/event/buddha-nature-our-original-purity-with-drupon-khenpo/
