SUMMARY:White Tara Practice
DESCRIPTION:Tara Embodies the female wisdom activity of the mind.  She is often called the mother of all the Buddhas\nHis Eminence Garchen Rinpoche has taught extensively on the benefits of White Tara practice. White Tara offers peace\, prosperity\, health and long life through her enlightened activities. She is depicted with a female body that is the brilliant white of a thousand autumn moons. Her third eye in her forehead symbolizes her vision of the unity of ultimate reality while she simultaneously sees the relative and dualistic world with her other two eyes.

She is the protective\, helpful and comforting mother who shows limitless kindness\, generosity and protection towards those who are tossed in the ocean of suffering.\n\nIf we recite her mantra and make a connection to her\, we draw closer to developing her enlightened qualities in ourselves.\n\nBring your bells and damarus!\n1st & 3rd  Wednesdays\, Every Month  \nAda Pierce McCormick BuildingUniversity of Arizona Campus1401 East First Street\nTucson\, Arizona  85719(Click here for a map)   \nFor More Information:  Zehra Conner: 299-1083

DESCRIPTION:Tara Embodies the female wisdom activity of the mind.  She is often called the mother of all the Buddhas\nHis Eminence Garchen Rinpoche has taught extensively on the benefits of White Tara practice. White Tara offers peace\, prosperity\, health and long life through her enlightened activities. She is depicted with a female body  is the brilliant white of a thousand autumn moons. Her third eye in her forehead symbolizes her vision of the unity of ultimate reality while she simultaneously sees the relative and dualistic world with her other two eyes. Her hands and feet also have eyes\, showing that all her actions are governed by her ultimate wisdom and compassion. She is the protective\, helpful and comforting mother who shows limitless kindness\, generosity and protection towards those who are tossed in the ocean of suffering.\n\nIf we recite her mantra and make a connection to her\, we draw closer to developing her enlightened qualities in ourselves.\n\nBring your bells and damarus!\n1st & 3rd  Wednesdays\, Every Month  \nAda Pierce McCormick BuildingUniversity of Arizona Campus1401 East First Street\nTucson\, Arizona  85719(Click here for a map)   \nFor More Information:  Zehra Conner:

SUMMARY:Manjushri Yamantaka Oral-Transmission and Study/Orientation Group
DESCRIPTION:In preparation for Garchen Rinpcohe’s Manjushri Yamantaka Empowerment and Teachings at DNL on December 10th  & 11th\, there will be an oral-transmission of the Manjushri Yamantaka Accomplishment retreat text (Rigzin Chodrag/Nuden Dorje) by local sangha members – as requested by Garchen Rinpoche.  He will not be able to give the oral-transmission of the text during the teachings – due to time constraints.\nThere will be 3 sessions offered and each session will be a complete reading of the long form of the text.  If you’re interested in receiving this it is necessary to participate in only one complete oral-transmission session.  It is okay to participate in this as often as you like. Each oral transmission session requires approximately 2 & 1/2 hours to complete.  It’s recommended to allow a little extra wiggle-room time – in case the sessions run over time. \nGarchen Rinpoche has recommended that you receive the oral-transmission – if you are participating in the studying and practice of this text.  It is not required or a pre-requisite to participate in these preparatory sessions to attend the Yamanataka Empowerment or Teachings on Dec 10/11 with Garchen Rinpoche.  The oral transmission is only required if you are participating in the study/orientation group below. \nSchedule for Oral-Transmission Sessions: \n11/16 Tue.  6:30 – 9:00pm (Guru Rinpoche Day)\n11/20 Sat. 12:30 – 3:00pm\n11/24 Wed.  7:00 – 9:30pm \nStudy/Orientation Sessions (*Oral-transmission is required to participate) \n11/27 Sat. 12:30 – 2:00pm\n12/01 Wed. 7:00 – 8:30pm (Dakini Day)\n12/04 Sat. 12:30 – 2:00pm \nAll sessions will be at Rachel & Matthew’ home at 3935 N.
