About this Program
Dzokden Golden Age Guides are a dedicated group of Dzokden volunteers who lead and facilitate local practice groups worldwide, ensuring that the living experience of the Kalachakra according to the Jonang lineage is accessible and supported within every sangha. These students are personally selected by Khentrul Rinpoche for their demonstrated skill and deep knowledge, serving as vital pillars of the Dharma who bridge the gap between Khentrul Rinpoche’s texts and the experiential meditative stages of the Kalachakra-Jonang tradition.
This unique program enables Golden Age Guides to:
- Operate across multiple languages and countries
- Be a direct point of contact and support for practitioners
- Act as representatives of Dzokden and provide orientation to Rinpoche’s mission
- Lead practice groups in the Kalachakra-Jonang lineage
- Play a strategic role in ensuring the local sangha remains a cohesive, vibrant force for peace
- Serve as local hosts when Rinpoche visits their region
This comprehensive global initiative coordinates administration, translation, and events to support our Guides in their mission to lead a shift in global consciousness and realize a new Golden Age of peace and harmony for our world.
Our Aspiration and Why This is Important
We aspire to provide practitioners a living experience of the Kalachakra through online and local sanghas through Golden Age Guides who are actively supported in their spiritual realization. Golden Age Guides are the vital link between ancient lineage wisdom and creating a unified global community. Every student should have the direct guidance needed to navigate the meditative stages of the Jonang tradition and contribute to a collective momentum that can shift global consciousness and manifest a Golden Age of harmony for all.
