Invitation to Join Our Weekly Public and Drub-dhe Meditation
Dzogchen Ngondro and Ngo-zhi
“Human Life, no matter how successful, rich, famous and powerful one may think of, is completely incomplete without taking spiritual path! As all of these are just like soap bubbles, subject to constant bursting. When the death comes which is ever unavoidable, one's consciousness doesn't die with the mortal body but it continues in Bardo.
“To prepare for this crucial moment, one must practice here and now without any delay, by taking and following a proper spiritual path accordingly. Even if one couldn't attain enlightenment at this stage, at least in ones next rebirth one will not fall into the lower realms and one will have another opportunity to continue on the path and eventually attaining enlightenment for oneself and for the benefit of all sentient beings! Taking spiritual path will also determine the conditions of ones next rebirth.
”The Human birth you have now is very precious and rare in this that each one could attain Buddhahood in this body and life!
”Meet a Lama/Spiritual Master now, receive empowerment, transmission and instructions and engage in the process!
”My love and prayers to you, your family, and friends!“ — Lama Khemsar Rinpoche
Dear students,
I am writing to you personally to invite each and every one of
you — students, family, friends — to join in the warmth
and fellowship of our meditations which take place at our local
centres in London, Wiltshire-Avebury, Wales, and Scotland.
The meditation is open to general public which will be assisted
by existing students. When Rinpoche is in town, every wednesday
he will go through each of the Dzogchen Ngondros (nine foundation
teachings), and on every first sunday of the month, when Rinpoche
is in your respective area, although the sunday practice is generally
allocated for the Jinpa Namzhi (Four Generosities) with focus on Lamei
Neljor or Yig-Gya, instead if he is there he will give Men-ngak on
various levels (a 'Men-ngak day').
The Dzogchen Ngondro foundation practices employ a combination of
mantra, visualization and meditation. Whilst these are generally
associated with Yungdrung Bön or The Eternal Light Teaching (The
Ancient Native Buddhism of Tibet) and Buddhism, their essence
has Universal Application and can be adapted and utilized by anyone
— regardless of the faith or belief system one ascribes
to.
