SUMMARY:Achi Practice
DESCRIPTION:This week’s practice will be led by Khenpo Nyima Gyaltsen Rinpoche. \nAchi Chokyi Droma was the grandmother of Lord Jigten Sumgon\, who founded the Drikung Kagyu Lineage.  Achi is considered chief protectress of the Drikung Kagyu.\nIn Achi meditation practice\, we use visualization and mantra as a means of concentration.  The practice lasts approximately an hour and a half\, and consists of opening prayers for dedicating the motivation to benefit all others\, the body of the practice using visualization (contemplation of the mental visual image) and mantra (chanted prayers).  The practice concludes with dedication prayers where\, again\, we think of our wish to benefit all other beings.\nThe prayers\, visualization\, and dedication are read from a sadhana (traditional practice text). \nThis particular practice was written by Jigten Sumgon\, our lineageís founder\, and translated in to English by Khenchen Gyaltsen Rinpoche.\nBeginners are welcome at this practice.  \n2nd & 4th  Wednesdays\, Every Month  \nPati Stein 1871 N.

SUMMARY:Contemplation on How the Fruits of Practice are Obtained
DESCRIPTION:Based on negative emotions\, we engage in actions (karma) of body\, speech\, and mind that give rise to suffering in our lives\, just as planting a seed gives rise to fruit in the future. In Buddhism\, suffering is not seen as “punishment” for bad deeds\, but simply a natural process of cause and effect. Deeds based on attachment\, aggression and ignorance naturally give rise to suffering\, while deeds based on a mind of non-attachment\, non-aggression\, and wisdom naturally bring happiness into our lives.This process continues from one life to the next\, through the process of Rebirth. Though the body ceases to exist at death\, the mind continues into a future existence\, and carries the seeds (which ultimately bear the fruits of practice) of karma into the next life.\nThis special weekend teaching by the Venerable Nyima Gyaltsen Rinpoche will discuss how the fruits of Buddhist practice are obtained. \n\n1871 N.
