A Weekend of Teaching with Her Eminence Mindrolling Khandro Rinpoche
August 15, 2015 - August 16, 2015
A Weekend of Teaching with Her Eminence Mindrolling Jetsun Khandro Rinpoche
“Nine Journeys to Awakened Mind”
Saturday, August 15-Sunday, April 16
9:00 am—5:00 pm both days
(Saturday and Sunday only)
The Buddhist path helps us access our innate openness, compassion, and wisdom. We need to learn how best to work with the many teachings and practices it offers. The Nine Yanas (or Journeys) provides an overview of the teachings, placing them in the context of our motivation, understanding, and readiness, and illuminates which skillful means will be most helpful at a particular time. Studying the Nine Yanas provides the perspective necessary to make the most effective use of every opportunity in the journey toward awakened mind. This is helpful for everyone, whether you are new to the path or have been traveling it for a while.
