This meditation and study course developed by Shamar Rinpoche has been guided by Lama Jigme Rinpoche for five years.
It is intended for all those who wish to deepen their practice and allows them to progressively acquire the necessary foundations to train in Chenrezik meditation and, in time, to actualize it.
The cycle is spread over three annual intensive retreats. It consists of subjects to study and meditations to apply. Between the retreats, participants are asked to practice implementing the instructions received. The content of each meeting depends on the evolution of the participants’ practice.
Teachers
Lama Jigme Rinpoche guides the program for each course. A group of students trained by Khenpo Chödrak present the philosophy portion.
Important
- This course is a continuation of the instructions transmitted for several years. We invite those who wish to discover this process of practice to participate in the Clarity and Compassion retreats, also guided by Lama Jigme Rinpoche.
- Having taken refuge is essential. This cycle is intended for people who are already familiar with the practice of meditation and Buddhist philosophical concepts.
- Joining this cycle implies taking part in all three annual courses as well as the previous years. It also implies carrying out the practice of learning philosophical notions and meditation between sessions to the best of your ability.
