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!
