September 13, 2024
The Lojong of Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo with Do Tulku Rinpoche
Lojong is the practice of transforming our attitude and conduct towards the mind of awakening. During this event, we will discuss this precious mind training, using the commentary composed by the great Rimé (or nonsectarian) master Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo.
September 16, 2024
Introduction to Vajrayana with Do Tulku Rinpoche
The Vajrayana is one of the most profound esoteric yet down to earth paths taught by the Buddha. We’ll learn the true essence of Vajrayana, its specialty, how it differs from the sutrayana path, and why it is considered to be the swifter path which delivers awakening in one lifetime.

The Inner Science of Vajra Yoga: Healing Mind and Body, Weekend Workshop (September 6 and 7) at Tibet House NYC with Robert A.F. Thurman, John Campbell and Jamie Bonelli, alternates between lecture and practice formats where students learn to experience yoga’s physical and mental interventions as methods to engage the subtle neurology of the vajra body of neural and circulatory channels, endocrine drops and coarse and subtle vital energies—the super-subtle anatomy beneath and within our ordinary body, speech, and mind.

Internal Kalachakra Mandala: Yoga, Astrology and the Subtle Body with Khentrul Rinpoche at Tibet House NYC
Shar Khentrul Jamphel Lodrö Rinpoche is a Rimé and Jonang Kalachakra Master of Tibetan Buddhism. Due to his non-sectarian approach, he earned himself the title of Rimé (unbiased) Master and was identified as the reincarnation of the famous Kalachakra Master Ngawang Chözin Gyatso. While at the core of his teachings is the recognition that there is great value in the diversity of all spiritual traditions found in this world; he focuses on the Jonang-Shambhala tradition. Thought to be extinct by many Western scholars, he found it held the most advanced teachings of Kalachakra containing profound methods to harmonize our external environment with the inner world of body and mind.

“We create most of our suffering, so it should be logical that we also have the ability to create more joy. It simply depends on the attitudes, the perspectives, and the reactions we bring to situations and to our relationships with other people. When it comes to personal happiness there is a lot that we as individuals can do.” - His Holiness the Dalai Lama
🙏

Join us this Friday, July 19 for an evening discussion on the Preciousness of Human Rebirth with H. E. Khangser Rinpoche
Learn more/register: https://events.thus.org/programs/preciousness-of-human-rebirth-with-h-e-khangser-rinpoche/
Rinpoche will examine and unpack this important Buddhist concept as it applies to our attitudes, actions and results in life as well as along the path. This is a wonderful opportunity to study with the highly venerated Eighth Khangser Rinpoche (Dipankara Buddhist Center), Tenzin Tsultrim Palden. Born in Kathmandu, Nepal in May 1975, He was recognized at the age of 5 as the reincarnation of the Seventh Khangser Rinpoche, who was one of the three high lamas responsible for searching for the fourteenth reincarnation of His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
“You can develop the right attitude toward others if you have kindness, love, and respect for them, and a clear realization of the oneness of all human beings.” - His Holiness the Dalai Lama
Today is Chökhor Düchen, commemorating Buddha Shakyamuni’s first teachings on the Four Noble Truths at Deer Park in Sarnath, India. Taught seven weeks after Buddha’s enlightenment, The Four Noble Truths are:
1. The truth of suffering
2. The truth of the cause of suffering
3. The truth of the end of suffering
4. The truth of the path to the end of suffering
During this auspicious occasion, karmic results of actions are multiplied 100 million times. It is a great time to meditate, reflect on Buddha dharma and engage in virtuous activities.
“You see, the past is past and the future is yet to come. That means the future is in your hands – the future entirely depends on the present. That realization gives you a great responsibility.” - His Holiness the Dalai Lama
