Read Dolpopa’s Classic text

Mountain Dharma: The Ocean of Definitive Meaning by Dolpopa Sherab Gyaltsen

It is said that teaching the Buddhadharma that the sons are more skilled than the fathers and that even the Buddha got better with practice. The early teachings say very little about the realized experience, and the Buddha remained silent on many points. The subsequent Perfection of Wisdom teachings says a little more but shy from saying too much about nonconceptual wisdom for fear of polluting it. Later in life, the Buddha was ready to talk about such things, and students were ready to hear them. After a thousand years, tantric masters learned the trick of making such insights about the fruition of the heart of the path. Here, you can read how Dolpopa presents these final teachings in all their glory, without invalidating any of those that came before.

One of the most important texts in all of Jonang Dharma is Dolpopa Sherab Gylatsen Mountain Dharma, commonly known as the Mountain Doctrine. Rime Lodrö (Ives Waldo) translated the book from Tibetan to English to ensure that the Zhentong view was properly translated.

Nagpa Dawa: Kalachakra Wheel Turning Day Tsok Celebration

Nagpa Dawa: Kalachakra Wheel Turning Day Tsok Celebration

This is a FREE event and available both Online and In-person.

On this incredibly auspicious full moon day hundreds of years ago, Shakyamuni Buddha in the form of the Yidam Deity appeared in Amravati to turn the wheel of Dharma. On this incredible day marking the month of Nagpa Dawa, at the request of Dharma King Suchandra from Shambhala, the Kalachakra Tantra was taught along with all other forms of tantra from the 4 faces of Kalachakra while the Buddha in the form of a monk simultaneously taught the Heart Sutra on Vulture Peak Mountain. While we do not have the full form of the Tantra that was taught that day, the abridged form of the Tantra that we have now is still the most extensive Tantra in the world. It has incredibly detailed and clear instructions explaining how to work with the external world, and the internal world to reveal the enlightened nature.

This day is very important for our world because it has been prophesied by Buddha Shakyamuni in the form of Kalachakra, that our world will transform into a Golden Age of Global Peace and harmony with the help of the Shambhala Dharma kings. On this day we will increase our connection to the 10th Level Bodhisattva Kings to help us on our Dharma path and remove obstacles so that we may reveal our own sacred truth and manifest a Golden Age on earth for the benefit of all beings. 

We will celebrate this year with teachings on Shambhala, along with prayers to Shambhala and obstacle removal with the power of Shambhala Dharma Kings.

The Kalachakra Tsok and various Prayers of Shambhala and the Kalki King Obstacle removing prayer will be recited. Please make sure to have access to the Unrestricted Prayers and text in the learning center.

Empoderamiento de Amitabha y Pūja con Khentrul Rinpoché

Empoderamiento de Amitabha y Pūja con Khentrul Rinpoché

Este es un evento con costo, disponible de manera presencial y en línea.

Amitabha es el Buda más conocido después del mismo Buda Shakyamuni. Algunas tradiciones chinas se enfocan solamente en Amitabha, y muchos tibetanos lo hacen también debido a que en el sutra de Amitabha está escrito que tomó innumerables votos para ayudar a los seres sintientes para renacer fácilmente en la Tierra Pura de Sukhavati, la Tierra de la Dicha.

La Tierra Pura de Amitabha es la más sencilla de acceder de entre todas las tierras puras, aunque quizá sea un poco más difícil de alcanzar que el reino Bodhisattva de Shambhala. A través de este empoderamiento, uno puede conectarse con Amitabha y trabajar para cultivar la fe inquebrantable y devoción hacia él.

Dos de los Lamas de Khentrul Rinpoché, incluido su Gurú Raíz, Lama Lobsang Trinlé, enfatizaban en las enseñanzas de Amitabha, especialmente para los practicantes no monásticos con vida familiar. Y de hecho, a pesar de que Lama Lobsang Trinlé era un Maestro Kalachakra, pasó toda su vida practicando e instruyendo las enseñanzas de Amitabha. Eventualmente legó no sólo su tocado iniciático (el sombrero iniciático que de hecho se ha desgastado por sus tantos años de uso) sino también los preciados textos referentes a las prácticas de Amitabha a Khentrul Rinpoché. Lama Lutrin dejó como tarea a Khentrul Rinpoché que enseñara esta práctica de Amitabha a mucha gente en el futuro.

Hasta ahora, Khentrul Rinpoché ha priorizado su pasión por las enseñanzas de Shambhala y la Era Dorada, dejando momentáneamente de lado las enseñanzas de Amitabha. Pero ahora se ha dado cuenta que es el momento adecuado para comenzar a compartir estas enseñanzas y así cumplir con la tarea de su preciado maestro.

Mucha de la gente que tiene gran fe y devoción y experimenta paz al momento de la muerte, suele ver a Amitabha antes de morir y sienten gran paz y seguridad luego de que han practicado sus enseñanzas en vida. Un Lama del linaje Jonang y un Khandro aseguraron que la propia madre de Khentrul Rinpoché partió hacia Sukhavati (al momento de la muerte) debido a su práctica tan poderosa. Khentrul Rinpohcé recibió este empoderamiento con sus prácticas múltiples veces de Lama Nyingma, Zhigli Khenpo, Tenzin Zangpo y Lama Lobsang Trinley.

Rinpoché dará el empoderamiento e instruirá la práctica.

Poetic Songs and Blessings for Taranatha’s Parinirvana: Oral Transmission of Zhentong Nyingpo

Poetic Songs and Blessings for Taranatha’s Parinirvana: Oral Transmission of Zhentong Nyingpo

This event is FREE and available Online only.

In honor of Jetsun Taranatha’s Parinrivana, Khentrul Rinpoche will bestow the oral transmission of the Zhentong Nyingpo. In a previous year he gave a commentary on the text which you can find in Learn.dzokden.org.

Jetsun Taranatha was a renowned Tibetan Buddhist scholar, teacher, and master of the Jonang school. He is considered one of the most important figures in the development of Tibetan Buddhism in the 16th and 17th centuries and is best known for his profound contributions to the teachings of emptiness (shunyata) and the nature of mind based on Dolpopa’s Zhentong emptiness. He was a master who had familiarity with all traditions and could write from their doctrinal point of view perfectly. If he wrote a commentary on a Jonang text it reflected no hint of the Nyngma and vice versa.

While a prolific tantric master who wrote many commentaries, empowerments and Sadhanas, he was also known for his poetry. Khentrul Rinpoche will share some of his Dharma poetry in honor of this day.
