Gyatso Preliminary Practice of
dZogchen (Ngondro) ($100 donation) |

Nyima Dakpa Rinpoche’s new book, Opening the Door to Bön, will be used as the basis for his teaching of the Ngondro or Preliminary Practice. This is a great opportunity to learn to use his book in our daily practice. For those who have had Ngondro before, this will be a wonderful time to ask questions and to deepen your understanding. Preliminary teaching is most essential for our understanding of Bön. It is the foundation needed to receive advance teaching of Esoteric (Sang Nag) and Great Perfection (Dzögchen). It teaches us how to receive teaching properly and apply the Essence of Bön teachings in our day-to-day life. Bön teaching is like an Ocean becoming deeper and deeper. As we understand and practice, the more there is to understand and practice, continually opening to our inner wisdom. This event is a continuation of teachings held last year. The focus of this teaching is mainly for new students, however, all are welcome. Rinpoche wishes to remind all students who have received this teaching that all ways are beneficial and it is important to review and clarify with the teacher. |

Opening the Door to Bön (Free Admission) |
Philosophical Research Society 3910 Los Feliz Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90042 323.663.2167 |

Often we expect guidance, protection and healing through shamanic or magical means, or through genuine ritual and ceremony. Forgotten is our own ability to benefit and truly open through insight. Nyima Dakpa will address the importance of opening the inner eye, or secret heart, to access inner wisdom. Discovering our true nature, and integrating into and remaining within the pure and perfected state will create joy, meaning, skill, wisdom, love and compassion, even while leading a seemingly worldly life. Happiness and joy is not elsewhere, it is for us to discover within. |
