Saka Dawa

Saka Dawa: Join us to practice together on the merit-multiplying day and be part of a Lama Chöpa with tsog practice! WHEN: Sunday June 4, 7.00 - 9.00 pm CET WHERE: Online LEVEL: Advanced, but anyone can join and get a sense of this practice!

Sunday June 4 is the fifteenth day of the fourth Tibetan lunar month, the day to celebrate Shakyamuni Buddha’s birth, enlightenment, and passing into Parinirvana. Any actions done during Saka Dawa, both auspicious and harmful, are multiplied in their power. Karmic results are said to be multiplied by one hundred million times, so don’t miss this precious opportunity! It is a very powerful time to practice and increase one’s commitment to both practice and study.

As indicated by the opening words, 'Arising within the sphere of great bliss, I manifest as a Guru Yidam,' it contains the idea of personal transformation through the practitioner merging his or her mind with the guru as the meditational deity. The essence of the practice is to see the guru as an...

This is the skill that enables us to positively transform our mind, paving the way for the enjoyment of genuine happiness. The quality of our attention directly impacts on the quality of vipassana meditations, and this will be explored after the Shamata input. We all need to start, where we are, so no matter what our level of meditation might be, these weekends will benefit the beginner and those who wish to deepen their practice. Based on B. Alan Wallace’s book “The Attention Revolution“, the teachings will include 24 minute meditation sessions, discussions with the teacher and student discussions in breakout rooms without a teacher.
