For online, you can join on the zoom link found below.
We are very excited to offer this fireside chat between Khentrul Rinpoche and Judith Simmer-Brown in advance of the Kalachakra Empowerment at Shambhala International. The renowned Kalachakra-tantra, the most detailed of Vajrayana literature, speaks about the degenerate age and the coming Golden Age. The Shambhala teachings, said to be the hidden inner teachings of the Kalachakra, envision an enlightened society imbued with harmony, compassion, and warriorship. What are the Shambhala teachings of the Kalachakra, and how do they relate to the terma lineages and visions of Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche?

夏.堪祖仁波切Non-Sectarian Master of Kalachakra
夏.堪祖嘉培珞珠仁波切是國際機構Dzokden(音譯:卓登)的創始人及精神導師。仁波切亦是Unveiling Your Sacred Truth(《照見真實》)、The Great Middle Way : Clarifying the Jonang View of Other-Emptiness(暫譯:大中觀:覺囊派他空見)、A Happier Life(暫譯:美好的生命)、The Hidden Treasure of the Profound Path(聖道秘寶:《神聖的階梯 》詳釋)等書的作者。
仁波切二十歳前在西藏高原上放牧及誦持真言咒語。受到菩薩的感召,他離開家庭,到多間寺院參學,得到二十五位以上的大師指導,廣習所有藏傳佛教的傳承。正因為這種不論派別的學習,他獲得「利美」(Rimé)大師之銜,亦被認證為時輪金剛大師雅旺確津嘉措(Ngawang Chözin Gyatso)的轉世。仁波切教學的核心是認識到全世界有眾多多樣化而有價值的心靈傳承。當中,他專注傳揚覺囊派的時輪教法(Kalachakra),這是殊勝之道,能讓外在環境與內在身心靈世界和諧一致,超越地帶來黃金時代的平和與和諧 (Dzokden)。
夏.堪祖仁波切以弘揚這些珍貴的教法為終身使命,致力於將其翻譯成多種語言,並在全球內傳播,希望能夠從每一個人的內在開始,一個人接著一個人地改變,從而真正改變我們的世界。 -
