We will receive detailed instructions section by section.  \nThe chapter that will be taught is available here: Mahamudra-Meditation. Please feel free to download it and familiarize yourself with the text prior to the teaching. \nWe are also delighted to announce that Eric Fry-Miller will serve as the translator for this special weekend. \nNOTE: Given the amount of material to cover\, the event starts at 9am on both Saturday\, November 2nd and Sunday\, November 3rd. \nTeaching Location (see directions to the center\, below):\nDrikung Namgyal Ling Center\n1135 West Twin Buttes Road\nSahuarita\, AZ 85629 \nRecommended Donation:  \n$25 per session or $75 for full weekend/non-members\n$20 per session or $60 for full weekend/Supporting Members and above\nFoundation Members no charge\nBecome a member and bring Dharma to Southeast Arizona! \nKarma Yoga opportunities: site preparation\, setup\, tea service\, teacher-translator attendant \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Annual 1000-Armed Chenrezig Drupchen with Drupon Thinley Ningpo – 2019
DESCRIPTION:Please Note:\nThis weekend event is open. You may attend all or part of the Drupchen. \n\nThe empowerment begins at 6pm on Friday\, November 8th\, and while attendance is recommended\, it is not required in order to participate in the Drupchen\nIf you plan on staying overnight\, you will want to bring your own bedding or sleeping bag and towels\, and plan on staying in dorm-style accommodations or camping\nSince the Drupchen continues without interruption both Friday and Saturday nights\, we could use your help with the late night sessions!\nLunch will be provided on Saturday and Sunday\, dinner on Saturday\, and breakfast items will be available for self-service each morning\n\nVenerable Drupon Thinley Ningpo returns November 8h through 10th for our annual Chenrezig Drupchen. We will begin the weekend with a Chenrezig Empowerment on Friday evening\, followed by a 24-hour practice over three days with multiple sessions per day. Attending the empowerment is not required\, and practitioners may attend all or part of the Drupchen practice. \nChenrezig is renowned as the embodiment of the compassion of all the Buddhas\, the Bodhisattva of Compassion. Whenever we are compassionate\, or feel love for anyone\, or for an animal or some part of the natural world\, we experience a taste of our own natural connection with Chenrezig. Although we may not be as consistently compassionate as some of the great meditation masters\, Tibetan Buddhists believe that we all share\, in our basic nature\, unconditional compassion and wisdom that is no different from what we see in Chenrezig. \nDrupchen means vast accomplishment and is a form of intensive group practice. This practice will continue night and day through three days\, ending Sunday\, November 10th at 5pm. Participants will be welcome to practice though the entire weekend or drop in for one or more sessions. \nNOTE: If you plan on attending the entire retreat\, please register so we can better plan the retreat. If you plan on attending on a per session basis\, please register in person the day(s) you attend. \nRegister for Annual Chenrezig Drupchen\nSchedule (November 8-10\, 2019):\nFriday\, November 8th\, 6pm to Sunday\, November 10th\, 5pm\nDay Practice sessions (approximately) from 8:30am-11:30am\, 11:30am-2:30pm\, 2:30pm-5:30pm\, 5:30pm-8:30pm\nNight Practice sessions (approximately) from 8:30pm-12:30am:\, 12:30am-4:30am\, 4:30am-8:30am \nRetreat Fee (3 Days):\n(includes housing & meals)\n$85 Non-members\n$60 Supporting Members & above\n Foundation Members are free \nPer Day Fee:\n$35/day for Non-members\n$25/day for Supporting Members or above\nFoundation Members are free\nWork Study Positions are available but require prior arrangements \nMeal Donations:\nPlease help to support the dharma and the retreat by providing lunch or dinner during the retreat.
