Karma, Death and Rebirth
This event is available online only.

Every day, we pass through countless small transitions—tiny deaths and rebirths in each moment. Yet, when the final transition of this life comes, we struggle, even though our old selves have already dissolved and reformed countless times. Death is not separate from life—it is an essential part of our journey. Whether you or a loved one is facing death now or many years from today, it is vital to understand how to live and die with awareness.
Khentrul Rinpoche will guide us through the profound teaching of the bardos—the transition phases between one life and the next. These moments hold immense potential for spiritual transformation if we recognize them as opportunities rather than obstacles. Through teaching on karma, the causes and conditions we create, and their deep connection to death and rebirth, Rinpoche will illuminate how we can shape our future beyond this life.

Khentrul RinpocheNon-Sectarian Master of KalachakraKhentrul Rinpoché Jamphel Lodrö is the founder and spiritual director of Dzokden. Rinpoche is the author of Unveiling Your Sacred Truth, The Great Middle Way: Clarifying the Jonang View of Other-Emptiness, A Happier Life, and The Hidden Treasure of the Profound Path.
Rinpoche spent the first 20 years of his life herding yak and chanting mantras on the plateaus of Tibet. Inspired by the bodhisattvas, he left his family to study in a variety of monasteries under the guidance of over twenty-five masters in all the Tibetan Buddhist traditions. 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. Kalachakra (wheel of time) teachings contain profound methods to harmonize our external environment with the inner world of body and mind, ultimately bringing about the golden age of peace and harmony (dzokden).
