SUMMARY:Preliminary Practices - Refuge Practice and It's Benefits
DESCRIPTION:With Drupon Thinley Ningpo \nLord Jigten Summon\, the father of our lineage\, said: “ The Ngondro is even more important than the higher practices.One must truly understand and practice the simple yet profound foundational teachings before one begins the higher teachings.”\nOne practices the four extraordinary foundations\, or the Vajrayana Ngondro\, to purify the negative karma and obscurations of the mind\, speech and body and to develop virtues. \nTaking refuge\, the foundation stone of all paths \nThe inner preliminaries starts with taking refuge\, learning to rely on the Buddha\, the Dharma(his teachings) \, and the Sangha.  Taking refuge is the basis of the other preliminaries and of all Buddhist practices. \nThis will be a teaching and  practice weekend.  Please bring your questions as this weekend will be helpful for beginners and experienced practitioners. \nSuggested Donation: $85 for the weekend\,

SUMMARY:Buddhism 101 -  A Deeper Understanding of the Fundamentals.
DESCRIPTION:Khenpo Yeshi \nTeacher: Khenpo Yeshi Rinpoche \nSuggested Donation: $85 for the weekend \nCan you name the 4 thoughts that turn the mind\, or describe the outer and inner preliminaries and their importance?  Whether a new student or seasoned practitioner\, clearly understanding the fundamentals of the path dispels confusion and serves as the basis for all stages of the path to enlightenment. \nIn the 11th century renowned scholar and practitioner\,  Atisha\, produced The Lam Rim\, or Stages of the Path\, a summary of thousands of disparate sutras and commentaries into a single root text\, A Lamp for the Path of Enlightenment.  In the twelfth century\, Gampopa integrated Atisha’s Lam Rim tradition with Tilopa’s Mahamudra teachings\, thereby giving birth to the famous Buddhist treatise\, The Jewel Ornament of Liberation\, and the Kagyu school of Buddhism itself. \nOur beloved spiritual friend\, scholar\, and teacher\, Khenpo Yeshi\, returns to Tucson July 23rd and 24th to take us back to the beginning again\, Tibetan Buddhism 101 if you’d like. New students will find his immense wisdom and warmth a true lamp to light the path\, and long term students will have a chance to brush up the basics and gain new insights on old knowledge.  A highly trained and accomplished professor of Buddhism (Khenpo)\, and as current doctoral student at UC Berkeley\, Khenpo Yeshi teaches in English and embraces western-style classroom principles. Join us for our version of summer school\, where not only will we study the book\, The Jewel Ornament of Realization\, and engage in lively discussions\, but there will also be handouts and take-ways for all attendees. \nIf you have been looking for a way to get into Buddhism\, and start at the beginning\, this precious opportunity cannot be missed. Seasoned practitioners have the chance to test and reinforce the “study” aspect of the Buddha’s 3-fold instruction to study\, to practice and to contemplate. This year\, Khenpo’s 12th year visiting Drikung Namgyal Ling\, we will celebrate the dharma by distributing copies of all 12 years of his ultra-concise and one-of-a-kind support materials\, including: \nsingle page outline of the entire path\ncharts of the ten Bhumis\nfamous dharma quotations\nextensive bibliographies \nThe root text\, The Jewel Ornament of Realization\, will be available in the bookstore\, as well as many other texts that will be cited during the teaching. Pre-reading recommended!

SUMMARY:Achi Chokyi Drolma Meditation Practice
DESCRIPTION:About Achi Practice: There are essentially two types of Buddhist meditation practice\, Sutra and Tantra. Achi Chokyi Drolma Meditation Practice is a Tantric meditation practice. \nAchi is one of the protectors of the Drikung Kagyu Lineage\, but she protects all beings from harm. Those who practice her and recite her mantra are sure to be protected from obstacles and hindrances\, especially to Dharma practice. \nAchi practice we uses visualization and mantra to facilitate concentration. The practice lasts approximately an hour and a half\, and consists of opening prayers for setting the motivation to benefit all others\, the body of the practice using visualization and mantra\, and finally the dedication prayers where we wish to benefit all sentient beings \nThe prayers\, visualization\, and dedication are read from a sadhana (traditional practice text). This particular practice was written by Jigten Sumgon\, our lineage’s founder\, and translated in to English by Khenchen Gyaltsen Rinpoche. \nBeginners are welcome at this practice. For those starting out\, the visualization is done a little differently and we are happy to go over that with you. Please feel free to come with questions. We will answer them as best we can. For those we can’t answer\, we have many excellent teachers to which we can refer. \n* After the practice please feel free to spend time at the center\, learn more about it\, and perhaps join us in merit-earning karma yoga to benefit all beings. *

SUMMARY:Sunday Mornings at the Center
DESCRIPTION:  \n \n  \nBy popular request we will practice Ngondro every Sunday.  Our schedule will be as follows: \n-Refuge 10 am – recitations and prostrations \n-Vajrasattva 11am – recitation\, meditation\, and purification \nIn samsara\, there are three types of suffering – suffering in the making\, the suffering of change\, and the suffering of suffering. Ones should meditate with fierce renunciation in the knowledge that the intrinsic nature of these three is like a building blazing with fire. Having established the difficulty of obtaining the freedoms and advantages\, ones should train in the ordinary preliminaries\, and then undertake them. \nThe founder to the Drikung Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism\, Lord Jigten Sumgon stated\, “Ngondro is even more important than the higher practices.” It has also been said that sincerely practicing only Ngondro will lead to enlightenment since all mind training techniques leading to enlightenment are included within it! \nIf you have always wanted to complete the preliminaries\, but needed the support of a group\, or are new and want to deepen your understanding and commitment this Sunday practice is for you. \nBeginners are very welcome at this practice. \n* After the practice we will have an optional pot luck lunch for those who wish to enjoy the good company and quietude of the Sahuarita location. *

DESCRIPTION:The  effectiveness of some practices is increased when undertaken together as a group – as Guru Rinpoche said\, “While it might be difficult for one man to move a boulder\, twenty pairs of hands can shift it with ease.”   Gathering our energy  in this way and directing it towards a specific objective can create positive results for all beings.

Khenchen Konchog Gyaltsen Rinpoche \n“According to Buddhism\, individuals are masters of their own destiny.  And all living beings are believed to possess the nature of the Primordial Being Samatabadra\, the potential or seed of enlightenment\, within them.  So the future is in our own hands.

SUMMARY:Achi Chokyi Drolma Meditation Practice
DESCRIPTION:About Achi Practice: There are essentially two types of Buddhist meditation practice\, Sutra and Tantra. Achi Chokyi Drolma Meditation Practice is a Tantric meditation practice. \nAchi is one of the protectors of the Drikung Kagyu Lineage\, but she protects all beings from harm. Those who practice her and recite her mantra are sure to be protected from obstacles and hindrances\, especially to Dharma practice. \nAchi practice we uses visualization and mantra to facilitate concentration. The practice lasts approximately an hour and a half\, and consists of opening prayers for setting the motivation to benefit all others\, the body of the practice using visualization and mantra\, and finally the dedication prayers where we wish to benefit all sentient beings \nThe prayers\, visualization\, and dedication are read from a sadhana (traditional practice text). This particular practice was written by Jigten Sumgon\, our lineage’s founder\, and translated in to English by Khenchen Gyaltsen Rinpoche. \nBeginners are welcome at this practice. For those starting out\, the visualization is done a little differently and we are happy to go over that with you. Please feel free to come with questions. We will answer them as best we can. For those we can’t answer\, we have many excellent teachers to which we can refer. \n* After the practice we will have a quiet sit followed by a pot luck lunch for those who wish to stay and enjoy the fine company and quietude of the Sahaurita location. *

SUMMARY:Four Kayas Guru Yoga
DESCRIPTION:Four Kayas Guru Yoga\nDrupon Rinchen Dorjee Rinpoche\nSaturday/Sunday\, November 7/8 \nDrupon Rinchen Dorjee oers teachings on The Four Kayas Guru Yoga\, his next installment of his series of practice instructions from the four thoughts on through to the instruction on Mahamudra and pointing out instructions. Here is a description of The Four Kayas from H.E. Garchen Rinpoche: \n“In your personal practice\, you see your own body as the yidam.  You see your mind as the guru. The mind of the guru is the union of emptiness and compassion; we are connected to the guru like the beads of a mala string. \nFrom the perspective of our own practice: the mind is guru\, the body is yidam\, and speech is the dakini. The Guru is the embodiment of 3 kayas: Body = Nirmanakaya\, Speech = Sambhogakaya and Mind = Dharmakaya. Lastly\, the fourth kaya\, Svabhavikakaya signies the inseparablity of the other three kayas. \nAt first\, the guru is the embodiment of outer refuge\, The Three Jewels. Later\, the guru is the embodiment of inner refuge\, The Three Roots. Finally\, the ultimate result is the attainment of The Three Kayas.” \nDrupon Rinchen Dorjee is currently the resident Lama for Chicago Ratna Shri and is the 3 year retreat master for Garchen Institute in Chino Valley. He is known for his wisdom\, patience\, and stable kindness.
