SUMMARY:Public Talk: The Four Noble Truths
DESCRIPTION:In Buddhism\, the central teaching of the Buddha\, is comprised of a set of basic concepts known as The Four Noble Truths. First is the reality of suffering (Pali dukkha)\, which carries the meaning of impermanence and imperfection. Secondly\, suffering is caused by attachments\, cravings\, and desires (tanha).  Thirdly\, suffering can be extinguished by breaking our attachment to desires (nirodha). Lastly\,\nthere is the path to the ending of suffering\, through following the Eightfold Path\, which provides ways to regulate and discipline behavior.\n\nLittle Chapel of All Nations\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

SUMMARY:Discovering Our Buddha Nature
DESCRIPTION:All sentient beings\, without exception have buddha nature\, the inherent purity and perfection of the mind\, untouched by changing mental states. Thus there is neither any reason for conceit in deeming oneself better than others\, nor any reason for self-contempt\, thinking of oneself as inferior and unable to reach enlightenment. This seeing is obscured by veils which are removable and do not touch the inherent purity and perfection of the nature of the mind.\nKhenpo Yeshi will be teaching from Buddha Nature\, The Mahayana Uttaratantra Shastra\, by by Arya Maitreya (commentary by Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Thaye and explanations by Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche).  Copies of the book will be available for purchase at the teaching.\nKhenpo Yeshi Rinpoche will teach on the fundamental discovery of our buddha nature\, and help us realize the teachings on the essence and source of buddhahood.\n\nA Lama Chopa meditation practice will precede each day’s teaching.  This one-hour practice\, let by Khenpo Yeshi\, is a complete meditation for purifying the four obscurations through receiving the four empowerments of transforming one’s body\, speech\, and mind into the pure enlightened state.\n \n\n1871 N.

SUMMARY:The Thirty Seven Practices of a Bodhisattva
DESCRIPTION:The teachings on the Thirty Seven Practices of a Bodhisattva give practical advice on how to work with our own hearts and minds\, beginning wherever we are now\, so that we can discover our own potential for compassion\, love\, and wisdom. Bodhisattvas are those who have the courage to undertake the profound change in attitude to develop true compassion. They resolve to consider othersí needs as paramount and thus attain enlightenment for the sake of all sentient beings. They are carried beyond the limits imposed by the illusion of self and other and thus attain the direct realization of reality.\nThis special evening teaching event will be led by Khenpo Yeshi Rinpoche\, and will occur Monday and Tuesday evening from 7-9 pm.\nIf you have any further questions\, please contact Matthew at matthew@drikungkagyutucson.org or call 884-0554.\nThese sessions are free and open to the general public.\nAs a courtesy to those with allergies\, please refrain from wearing  perfume.
