Shechen Mexico to Host Rabjam Rinpoche and Matthieu Ricard

September 1st, 2012  |  Published in NEWS

 

It is with great pleasure that we announce a retreat with Rabjam Rinpoche in Mexico, September 19 – 22.

After many requests by his students, Rabjam Rinpoche has accepted to teach committed students the complete path based on the spiritual treasures (termas) of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche. Rinpoche will give an introduction to the Rangjung Pema Nyingtik and the instructions of calm abiding (based upon Mipam Rinpoche’s Sadhana of the Buddha, The Treasury of Blessings and its commentary).  Khenpo Karma Tsultrim, and Matthieu Ricard will be giving additional teachings during the retreat.

This year, the retreat is open to students who do not want to enter into a long-term commitment to the practice, but who do want to establish a connection with Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche’s lineage. The retreat is the prerequisite to attend the future retreats.

Matthieu Ricard will be giving an all-day teaching in Mexico City on September 23 on “Compassion in Modern Times.”  Included in the all-day program will be the premiere of  Yangsi, a new film about Dilgo Khyentse Yangsi Rinpoche. Rabjam Rinpoche will introduce the film.

This exceptional all-day event is a benefit for Shechen Monastery in Nepal. For further information and to register please go to www.shechen.mx or contact mexico@shechen.org.
