SUMMARY:Monday Meditation Practice - Amitahba
DESCRIPTION:Each Monday we come together to listen\, contemplate\, and meditate on the Buddhist teachings.Buddha Amitabha is an historical buddha from another era.  He made special aspiration that he would accomplish bodhicitta and benefit all sentient beings.  In particular he focused on his pure land called Dewachen and said even those who have not achieved bhumis can be reborn in my pure land.  They can make this connection simply by hearing my name and developing devotion.\nCurrently we are listening to the teachings of Garchen Rinpoche on Deity practice.\nMeditation practice can vary from week to week.  Frequently we practice White Tara\, Achi\, Amitabha\, or Vajrasattva deity meditation\, using visualization and mantra as a means of concentration.\nThis practice is free and beginners are welcome.\nFollowing this practice\, we will also listen to Garchen Rinpoche’s teaching on “Essential Pith Instructions on the Accomplishment Practice of Yamataka”.  This teaching was held in Tucson in December of 2010.\nGarchen Rinpoche had this to say about this practice: \n“When you are meditating on loving-kindness and compassion for all\, then you have no ego-clinging.  Without ego-clinging nothing can harm you.  So through Yamataka we meditate on compassion for all sentient beings and nothing – curses\, sorcery\, whatever – can harm us.\nIf you understand this then you understand all there is to know about Yamataka Practice.”\nAdditionally\, practitioners who attended this teaching have said this instruction from Garchen Rinpoche is helpful instruction for all Deity Practices.\n\n \nEvery Monday Evening  \n4648 East Speedway Blvd Tucson\, Arizona  85711 (Click here for a map)   \nFor More Information:  Pati Stein: 465-1882
