About the Teachings
Triple Empowerment, The Three Wrathfuls: Vajrapani, Hayagriva, and Garuda The Three Wrathfuls is a profound empowerment for clearing away obstacles, illnesses and negativities that hinder our well-being and dharma practice. These three deities embody the power of all Buddhas. Vajrapani is an emanation of Buddha's enlightened mind. Hayagriva is an emanation of Buddha's enlightened speech. Garuda is an emanation of Buddha's enlightened body. During these degenerate times, when many of us experience disturbances in our inner and outer worlds, the blessings of these protective deities are even stronger. Dzogchen Teachings: Garab Dorje’s Three Words that Strike the Vital Point Dzogchen is one of the highest teachings in Tibetan Buddhism and offers a clear, effective way to realize the innermost nature of mind. Garchen Rinpoche explained the meaning of Dzogchen this way: “Dzog means ‘to complete,’ all phenomena of samsara and nirvana are complete within the single mind. Chen means ‘great,’ there is no higher path than this.” Dzogchen is the self-perfected state of our primordial nature, uncreated yet spontaneously accomplished. Rinpoche will teach from Garab Dorje’s final testament, Three Words That Strike the Vital Point. Garab Dorje was the first human Dzogchen master, who manifested this text during his parinirvana in which he ascended into the sky and dissolved into rainbow light. Three Words That Strike the Vital Point has been revered by masters and practitioners for centuries as embodying in its vital points the very essence of the Dzogchen path. |

A Word about a Sliding Scale.RigDzin is using a Sliding Scale model to make this teaching event affordable for all individuals. A Sliding Scale works only when people truly pay what they can afford. Please keep in mind that generosity, one of the six paramitas (perfections), is at the heart of Buddhist practice. By being as generous as we can we enable others to attend teachings that otherwise could not. Holding teachings involves considerable costs, including airline and transportation costs, translator fees, venue costs, accommodation, and food. The only way we can continue to bring Buddhist masters to our community is through the practice of your generosity. May all beings benefit!
Scholarships are available for those who would like to attend the teachings but need financial assistance to do so. No person should fail to attend for lack of requested fees. Please call or e-mail ahead to make financial arrangements.
Work study positions are also available and require a work commitment. Please contact the Center if you are interested in a work study position.
