RETREAT
THE TWENTY-ONE NAILS: A PRACTICE RETREAT
with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
The teachings of the Twenty-One Nails are a direct expression of enlightenment – our natural mind. Each nail describes this natural state from a different point of view. These views are called «nails» or «seals» because they stabilize the experience-based understanding of the natural state. These teachings are said to have come directly from the original Buddha, Küntu Zangpo, passed down to eight successive Buddhas, and then orally to 24 human Bon lineage holders, all yogis and siddhas. They were first written down by Yangton Sherap Gyaltsen in the eleventh century. The teachings have been passed on in unbroken succession to our teachers at the present time: Yongdzin Sangye Tenzin, His Holiness Lungtok Tenpai Nyima Rinpoche,
The teachings and practices presented by Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche provide an exceptional gateway for those newly interested to experience the wisdom and practicality of the Bon teachings. For those already connected to Bon, it is a precious opportunity to be with Tenzin Rinpoche and deepen study and practice. We invite everyone to join us in Buchenau this summer.

The Four Goodnesses of Tapihritsa: Dzogchen Pith Instructions with Choekhortshang Rinpoche
Come join us for Geshe Choekhortshang Rinpoche’s first teachings in the United States! Rinpoche is a popular teacher across Europe, and possess an excellent command of English. Many know him for his online teachings on the Ngöndro, Yeshe Walmo, Sherap Chamma and Chöd.
In this very special weekend event, Rinpoche will teach on the Four Goodnesses of Tapihritsa. Tapihritsa gave these very direct and quintessential instructions to Gyerpung Nangzher Löpo upon their first meeting in the eighth century.
VIEW: By omni-pervasiveness, let unconditioned self-awareness go into the self-liberated vision not grasped by mind; this way is good,
MEDITATION: Let baseless experience unconditionally perceive the non-referential and self-clear edition; this way is good,
BEHAVIOR: Without dualistic choosing, let experiential vision directly perform flexible actions with are without attachment; this way is good,
FRUIT: Let the limits of hope and fear self-liberate into the unobtainable self-arising realization; this way is good.
⸺from Wonders of the Natural Mind, by Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
The result of receiving, understanding and meditating on these teachings ultimately is attainment of the rainbow body, complete self-realization or buddhahood.
Rinpoche will teach in depth on these four “goodnesses” with his usually insightful, lively and good-natured style over one and a half days of teachings and practice.

Registration Open, 2022 – Ongoing
In this self-guided course, which is available to take at any time, Khandro Tsering Wangmo Khymsar shares everything you need to know to raise lungta (windhorse) prayer flags. Included in her series of videos is a discussion of lungta (luck, prosperity and positive energy), what it is, how to maintain it and how it can be lost. Tsering-la teaches about the symbols and meaning of lungta prayer flags, when they should be raised, and when not to raise them. Participants will learn how to use prayer flags to lift their own energy, spirit and general well-being, or do so on behalf of others.
The course includes audio files of Geshe Denma Gyaltsen singing all of the mantras and prayers for this ritual, which you can download and use for yourself. PDF files of the prayers, sacred images, lists of needed ingredients and more also are included.
This is the first Ligmincha Learning course to teach a traditional Tibetan Bonpo skill or ritual. Now in development is a course with Lama Kalsang Nyima that will teach how to construct a Yeshe Walmo namkha. Namkhas are a traditional form of art made with strings and sticks used to represent one’s yidam deity.

Healing From The Source: Meditation As Medicine For Body And Mind
with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
Without the light and warmth of the sun, trees and flowering plants will fail to flourish.
Without awareness and warmth toward your body, you, too, will fail to flourish.».
—Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
It’s human nature to keep picking at our own physical, emotional and mental wounds. Whether we’re sick in a hospital bed or have just woken up on the wrong side of the bed, we tend to self-criticize and punish ourselves for our bad feelings. We scratch at our itches, curse at our arthritis, tug at our anger and blame our anxiety on others. We busy our minds to avoid depression. Disturbing emotions can even make us sick, or sicker.
The three precious pills serve as the foundation of the main practice. Their healing effects come from resting deeply in the space that opens, then gradually bringing awareness to your emotional or physical discomfort. In that unconditional openness, the pain or discomfort naturally dissolves.
This three-week online workshop, with personal support and guidance from Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche, focuses on cultivating loving-kindness as a means for preventing and healing both physical and emotional pain. Based on ancient teachings of dzogchen from the Tibetan Bön Buddhist tradition, the workshop helps one discover the “great healer within.” The core teachings of dzogchen introduce us to the nature of mind, to our own inner refuge, the true source of healing.

RETREAT
Connecting to the Healing Power of the Sacred Elements
With Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
According to the ancient Tibetan spiritual traditions, our planet is alive and sacred. The five natural elements—earth, water, fire, air and space—can be considered fundamental aspects of a living universe. All of our experiences, from the sensations of the physical body, to the emotions, to the most fleeting of thoughts, are said to be composed entirely of these five elements in interaction.
During this weekend, we will learn how to connect to the outer sacred elements and spirits of the elements in our environment, the inner sacred dimension of elements through the energy in our body, and the innermost sacred dimension of the elements—awareness itself.
Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche will guide us in connecting with the elements in their different manifestations, to support environmental, physical, emotional and spiritual healing and to nourish and restore health and vitality.
This retreat is a hybrid event. You can join online via Zoom, or in-person. Teaching will be in English with Hungarian translation. Further languages will also be available on Zoom, information to be updated soon!

COURSE
Transforming Our Emotions Through the Six Lokas
with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
This meditation course will give you a thorough introduction to the Six Lokas practices of the Tibetan Bön Buddhist tradition.
At one time or another each of us suffer strong emotions that throw us off balance, cause us to act in ways that we later regret, and make us lose touch with our true nature. Centuries ago the masters of the Bön lineage developed the meditations of the Six Lokas specifically to remedy this situation, to help us live our lives in a balanced and relaxed way.
The meditations focus on the root causes of our suffering: anger, desire, greed, ignorance, jealousy, pride and laziness. Through each meditation we examine our habitual patterns so that we may recognize them, then invoke the enlightened energy of the Buddhas to purify and transform us so that we and all other beings might not continue to suffer in this way. The practices have a deep healing and transformative power, and are traditionally practiced at length as a preliminary to dzogchen contemplation.

Realizing Your Full Potential: Ripening the Conditions of the Body
with Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
In a live online broadcast, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche offers a teaching and guides a meditation to mark the start of the Month of the Body — part of his free yearlong program “Bring Body, Speech & Mind to Life.” Open to all.
“Body” refers here not only to our physical body and the tangible world around us, but also to our individual sense of identity as a human being. The teachings, discussions, and practices explored during the Month of the Body help us to connect to the door of the body, clearing obstacles to health and well-being through movement and stillness. Resting our awareness in the stillness of the body opens the door to the clear, open, unchanging experience of our true nature and awakens clear, positive action.
In advance of his teaching, Rinpoche encourages creating a bit of space for meditation in your house — in a quiet, peaceful location where you can feel some sense of warmth and connection to yourself. You might provide a comfortable cushion to sit on, and a candle or stick of incense. A supportive outer space can support your inner space during meditation.

COURSE
Treasures of Bön: History, Lineage & Practices
with Geshe Denma Gyaltsen and John Jackson
Bön counts itself among the oldest spiritual traditions in the world. With origins steeped in an oral, shamanic tradition and yet deeply rooted in teachings of the buddha Tonpa Shenrap, the buddha who preceded Shakyamuni Buddha. Bön offers practices for the challenges we face in our lives, and a complete path to enlightenment..
Ligmincha International is pleased to share our online course designed for anyone who would like to learn more about, or deepen their existing knowledge about this ancient, profound tradition. This course is ideal for beginners who have recently connected with Bön teachings, and want to know more about where it comes from and the many varied forms of practice in the tradition. It is also well suited for practitioners who have learned several practices and would like to know how all the practices fit together into a beautiful and complete system of philosophies and meditations.
We use a new format for this course, in which Geshe Denma Gyaltsen, our resident lama of Ligmincha Texas, and John Jackson, mentor for many of our courses and frequent international teacher, enter into deep conversations around the essential masters and teachings of our tradition. Each topical conversation is followed by a guided meditation, led by Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche or Geshe Denma Gyaltsen , which illustrate and demonstrate the themes discussed.
John Jackson will be the mentor for this course.

COURSE
Tibetan Dream Yoga
with Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
It is said that the practice of dream yoga deepens our awareness during all our experience: the dreams of the night; the dream-like experience of the day; and the bardo experiences after death. Indeed, the practice of dream yoga is a powerful tool of awakening, used for hundreds of years by the great masters of the Tibetan traditions. Unlike in the Western psychological approach to dreams, the ultimate goal of Tibetan dream yoga is the recognition of the nature of mind or enlightenment itself.
In this four-week workshop, students will explore and practice the ancient Bön Buddhist teachings of Tibetan dream yoga. The workshop provides detailed instruction for dream yoga practice, with discussion of the relationships between dreaming and waking and between dreaming and death. Rinpoche also will provide instructions for foundational practices done during the day and for the uses and methods of lucid dreaming.

COURSE
The Three Heart Mantras
with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
The Three Heart Mantras are used in many different meditations in the Bön tradition and play a major role in the ngöndro practices. They are said to be the essence of enlightenment in sound and energy, and as we sing or chant the mantras our awareness is transformed to be in union with the Buddhas. They are used for purification, protection and as primary practices toward self-realization.
It is said that creating these mantras in any form brings merit and purification, so they are commonly found carved into stones, printed on prayer flags where they spread their benefits through the winds, and even drawn with gold ink and kept on shrines as an object of reverence and meditation. Their blessings are said to be endless. Also within this course Tenzin Rinpoche explains the essence of the Guru Yoga, Refuge and Bodhicitta practices, making this an excellent introduction to the tradition.
Lourdes Hinojosa will be the mentor for this course.

Fall Retreat: The Five Elements & Serenity Ridge Dialogues with Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
Join us for five very special days with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche and special guests.
Our planet is as alive as it is sacred. The five elements of earth, water, fire, air, and space are not just natural resources, but are fundamental aspects of a living universe. The elements exist not only at a gross, physical level, but in many increasingly subtle forms, with distinct qualities and effects. In fact, every experience one can have, from the sensations of one’s physical body, to emotions, to the most fleeting of thoughts, is composed of the interaction of these five elements. Come learn, connect and experience their power for yourself!
This retreat brings something entirely new to Serenity Ridge. In the mornings, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche will teach on the Five Elements, with a special emphasis on the cleansing and healing power of the five tsa lung exercises and the Nine Breaths of Purification. He will be joined and supported by Geshe YongDong Losar, from Vancouver Island, Canada. In the afternoon they will be joined by researchers and healthcare practitioners of both Easern and Western medicine. Collectively they will present research, knowledge and their own experiences regarding how connecting to the elements, to the breath, awareness and the body can help us to connect more fully to the joy of life, to heal injury and trauma, and to be more present to each moment.
Our special guests include:
Geshe YongDong Losar is the youngest monk ever awarded the Geshe degree at Nangzhig Bon Monastery. Following his graduation in the spring of 1992, Geshe YongDong escaped Tibet. In India he studied at both Menri and Sera Monasteries. In the fall of 1999, Geshe YongDong moved to British Columbia, Canada. Living on Vancouver Island, he founded Sherab Chamma Ling, the first Tibetan Bon Buddhist Center in Canada. He is the Resident Spiritual Director and continues to teach regularly at his center today.
Menpa Phuntsok Wangmo is director of the Shang Shung Institute School of Tibetan Medicine. Menpa Wangmo organized and instructed the first full-length, traditional Tibetan Medicine training program offered in the Western World. Menpa Wangmo teaches Tibetan Medicine programs around the world.
Lonny Jarrett is recognized worldwide as a leading practitioner, author, scholar and teacher of East Asian medicine. Lonny has been practicing Acupuncture and Herbology in Stockbridge, Massachusetts since 1986. He holds Master’s Degrees in Neurobiology (University of Michigan) and Acupuncture (Traditional Acupuncture Institute) and studied Contemporary Pulse Diagnosis with Dr. Leon Hammer for 10 years.
Sat-Bir Singh Khalsa is a researcher in the field of body mind medicine, specializing in yoga therapy. Originally from Toronto, he earned his Ph.D. at the University of Toronto, where he also began his practice of Kundalini Yoga under the tutelage of Yogi Bhajan.

Sherap Chamma: Mother of Wisdom and Love
with Marcy Vaughn
Ligmincha Learning is pleased to announce that we will be offering our course introducing the practices of Sherap Chamma, Mother of Wisdom and Love, taught by Marcy Vaughn.
In many cultures the primordial female energy is seen as the origin of existence and the source of all positive qualities. As such, Sherap Chamma is the source of wisdom, and her medicine is love and compassion. The teachings of Sherap Chamma comprise one of the most important tantric cycles of the ancient Bön tradition.
Join Marcy Vaughn in this special course to learn a beautiful and simple meditation practice that will enable you to connect directly with the divine feminine energy. With visualization, the sound of mantra, and deep contemplation, participants can make a personal connection to this sacred form of the universal mother, Sherap Chamma, and are guided through this connection to innate wisdom and the love and compassion that naturally radiate from that wisdom.
Those experienced in meditation as well as those who are beginning are warmly welcomed.

COURSE
Meditation, Breath and Movement
with Alejandro Chaoul-Reich
Location: ligminchalearning.com
Tsa lung is a series of ancient yogic practices that brings balance and harmony to our physical body, energy and mind. The term tsa lung can be translated as the energy-winds (Tibetan: lung, Skt. prana, Chinese, qi) in the Channels, for these practices are designed to open the subtle channels, guiding the healthy flow of the energy-winds so that we can enjoy good health and reconnect with more calmness to a quiet, peaceful mind. These exercises are easy to perform and are suitable for everyone.
There are three levels of tsa lung practice: external, internal and secret. External tsa lung works primarily on the physical level, using simple movements and breath exercises to balance the energies within our body. Internal tsa lung works more at the level of breath and subtle energy, bringing our attention to opening the five chakras and the central channel. Secret tsa lung uses subtle visualizations within the chakras and central channel to bring harmony to the mind, so that we can rest in our inner refuge, nature of mind. All of the tsa lung exercises integrate and balance the five elements within: earth, water, fire, wind and space.
These practices are drawn from the Bön Mother Tantra (Tibetan: Ma Gyud) the highest tantra in our tradition. They are a beautiful complement to any meditation practice, and particularly to dzogchen. They are frequently performed at the beginning of a session so that meditation is deeper and more stable. External tsa lung is commonly performed in all Ligmincha centers and groups.

THE TWENTY-ONE NAILS: A PRACTICE RETREAT
with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
The teachings of the Twenty-One Nails are a direct expression of enlightenment – our natural mind. Each nail describes this natural state from a different point of view. These views are called «nails» or «seals» because they stabilize the experience-based understanding of the natural state. These teachings are said to have come directly from the original Buddha, Küntu Zangpo, passed down to eight successive Buddhas, and then orally to 24 human Bon lineage holders, all yogis and siddhas. They were first written down by Yangton Sherap Gyaltsen in the eleventh century. The teachings have been passed on in unbroken succession to our teachers at the present time: Yongdzin Sangye Tenzin, His Holiness Lungtok Tenpai Nyima Rinpoche,
The teachings and practices presented by Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche provide an exceptional gateway for those newly interested to experience the wisdom and practicality of the Bon teachings. For those already connected to Bon, it is a precious opportunity to be with Tenzin Rinpoche and deepen study and practice. We invite everyone to join us in Buchenau this summer.

The Four Goodnesses of Tapihritsa: Dzogchen Pith Instructions with Choekhortshang Rinpoche
Come join us for Geshe Choekhortshang Rinpoche’s first teachings in the United States! Rinpoche is a popular teacher across Europe, and possess an excellent command of English. Many know him for his online teachings on the Ngöndro, Yeshe Walmo, Sherap Chamma and Chöd.
In this very special weekend event, Rinpoche will teach on the Four Goodnesses of Tapihritsa. Tapihritsa gave these very direct and quintessential instructions to Gyerpung Nangzher Löpo upon their first meeting in the eighth century.
VIEW: By omni-pervasiveness, let unconditioned self-awareness go into the self-liberated vision not grasped by mind; this way is good,
MEDITATION: Let baseless experience unconditionally perceive the non-referential and self-clear edition; this way is good,
BEHAVIOR: Without dualistic choosing, let experiential vision directly perform flexible actions with are without attachment; this way is good,
FRUIT: Let the limits of hope and fear self-liberate into the unobtainable self-arising realization; this way is good.
⸺from Wonders of the Natural Mind, by Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
The result of receiving, understanding and meditating on these teachings ultimately is attainment of the rainbow body, complete self-realization or buddhahood.
Rinpoche will teach in depth on these four “goodnesses” with his usually insightful, lively and good-natured style over one and a half days of teachings and practice.

RETREAT
Connecting to the Healing Power of the Sacred Elements
With Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
According to the ancient Tibetan spiritual traditions, our planet is alive and sacred. The five natural elements—earth, water, fire, air and space—can be considered fundamental aspects of a living universe. All of our experiences, from the sensations of the physical body, to the emotions, to the most fleeting of thoughts, are said to be composed entirely of these five elements in interaction.
During this weekend, we will learn how to connect to the outer sacred elements and spirits of the elements in our environment, the inner sacred dimension of elements through the energy in our body, and the innermost sacred dimension of the elements—awareness itself.
Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche will guide us in connecting with the elements in their different manifestations, to support environmental, physical, emotional and spiritual healing and to nourish and restore health and vitality.

Realizing Your Full Potential: Ripening the Conditions of the Body
with Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
In a live online broadcast, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche offers a teaching and guides a meditation to mark the start of the Month of the Body — part of his free yearlong program “Bring Body, Speech & Mind to Life.” Open to all.
“Body” refers here not only to our physical body and the tangible world around us, but also to our individual sense of identity as a human being. The teachings, discussions, and practices explored during the Month of the Body help us to connect to the door of the body, clearing obstacles to health and well-being through movement and stillness. Resting our awareness in the stillness of the body opens the door to the clear, open, unchanging experience of our true nature and awakens clear, positive action.
In advance of his teaching, Rinpoche encourages creating a bit of space for meditation in your house — in a quiet, peaceful location where you can feel some sense of warmth and connection to yourself. You might provide a comfortable cushion to sit on, and a candle or stick of incense. A supportive outer space can support your inner space during meditation.

Registration Open, 2022 – Ongoing
In this self-guided course, which is available to take at any time, Khandro Tsering Wangmo Khymsar shares everything you need to know to raise lungta (windhorse) prayer flags. Included in her series of videos is a discussion of lungta (luck, prosperity and positive energy), what it is, how to maintain it and how it can be lost. Tsering-la teaches about the symbols and meaning of lungta prayer flags, when they should be raised, and when not to raise them. Participants will learn how to use prayer flags to lift their own energy, spirit and general well-being, or do so on behalf of others.
The course includes audio files of Geshe Denma Gyaltsen singing all of the mantras and prayers for this ritual, which you can download and use for yourself. PDF files of the prayers, sacred images, lists of needed ingredients and more also are included.
This is the first Ligmincha Learning course to teach a traditional Tibetan Bonpo skill or ritual. Now in development is a course with Lama Kalsang Nyima that will teach how to construct a Yeshe Walmo namkha. Namkhas are a traditional form of art made with strings and sticks used to represent one’s yidam deity.

Healing From The Source: Meditation As Medicine For Body And Mind
with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
Without the light and warmth of the sun, trees and flowering plants will fail to flourish.
Without awareness and warmth toward your body, you, too, will fail to flourish.».
—Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
It’s human nature to keep picking at our own physical, emotional and mental wounds. Whether we’re sick in a hospital bed or have just woken up on the wrong side of the bed, we tend to self-criticize and punish ourselves for our bad feelings. We scratch at our itches, curse at our arthritis, tug at our anger and blame our anxiety on others. We busy our minds to avoid depression. Disturbing emotions can even make us sick, or sicker.
The three precious pills serve as the foundation of the main practice. Their healing effects come from resting deeply in the space that opens, then gradually bringing awareness to your emotional or physical discomfort. In that unconditional openness, the pain or discomfort naturally dissolves.
This three-week online workshop, with personal support and guidance from Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche, focuses on cultivating loving-kindness as a means for preventing and healing both physical and emotional pain. Based on ancient teachings of dzogchen from the Tibetan Bön Buddhist tradition, the workshop helps one discover the “great healer within.” The core teachings of dzogchen introduce us to the nature of mind, to our own inner refuge, the true source of healing.

COURSE
Transforming Our Emotions Through the Six Lokas
with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
This meditation course will give you a thorough introduction to the Six Lokas practices of the Tibetan Bön Buddhist tradition.
At one time or another each of us suffer strong emotions that throw us off balance, cause us to act in ways that we later regret, and make us lose touch with our true nature. Centuries ago the masters of the Bön lineage developed the meditations of the Six Lokas specifically to remedy this situation, to help us live our lives in a balanced and relaxed way.
The meditations focus on the root causes of our suffering: anger, desire, greed, ignorance, jealousy, pride and laziness. Through each meditation we examine our habitual patterns so that we may recognize them, then invoke the enlightened energy of the Buddhas to purify and transform us so that we and all other beings might not continue to suffer in this way. The practices have a deep healing and transformative power, and are traditionally practiced at length as a preliminary to dzogchen contemplation.

COURSE
Treasures of Bön: History, Lineage & Practices
with Geshe Denma Gyaltsen and John Jackson
Bön counts itself among the oldest spiritual traditions in the world. With origins steeped in an oral, shamanic tradition and yet deeply rooted in teachings of the buddha Tonpa Shenrap, the buddha who preceded Shakyamuni Buddha. Bön offers practices for the challenges we face in our lives, and a complete path to enlightenment..
Ligmincha International is pleased to share our online course designed for anyone who would like to learn more about, or deepen their existing knowledge about this ancient, profound tradition. This course is ideal for beginners who have recently connected with Bön teachings, and want to know more about where it comes from and the many varied forms of practice in the tradition. It is also well suited for practitioners who have learned several practices and would like to know how all the practices fit together into a beautiful and complete system of philosophies and meditations.
We use a new format for this course, in which Geshe Denma Gyaltsen, our resident lama of Ligmincha Texas, and John Jackson, mentor for many of our courses and frequent international teacher, enter into deep conversations around the essential masters and teachings of our tradition. Each topical conversation is followed by a guided meditation, led by Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche or Geshe Denma Gyaltsen , which illustrate and demonstrate the themes discussed.
John Jackson will be the mentor for this course.
Registration is now open.

Tibetan Dream Yoga
with Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
It is said that the practice of dream yoga deepens our awareness during all our experience: the dreams of the night; the dream-like experience of the day; and the bardo experiences after death. Indeed, the practice of dream yoga is a powerful tool of awakening, used for hundreds of years by the great masters of the Tibetan traditions. Unlike in the Western psychological approach to dreams, the ultimate goal of Tibetan dream yoga is the recognition of the nature of mind or enlightenment itself.
In this four-week workshop, students will explore and practice the ancient Bön Buddhist teachings of Tibetan dream yoga. The workshop provides detailed instruction for dream yoga practice, with discussion of the relationships between dreaming and waking and between dreaming and death. Rinpoche also will provide instructions for foundational practices done during the day and for the uses and methods of lucid dreaming.

COURSE
The Three Heart Mantras
with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
The Three Heart Mantras are used in many different meditations in the Bön tradition and play a major role in the ngöndro practices. They are said to be the essence of enlightenment in sound and energy, and as we sing or chant the mantras our awareness is transformed to be in union with the Buddhas. They are used for purification, protection and as primary practices toward self-realization.
It is said that creating these mantras in any form brings merit and purification, so they are commonly found carved into stones, printed on prayer flags where they spread their benefits through the winds, and even drawn with gold ink and kept on shrines as an object of reverence and meditation. Their blessings are said to be endless. Also within this course Tenzin Rinpoche explains the essence of the Guru Yoga, Refuge and Bodhicitta practices, making this an excellent introduction to the tradition.
Lourdes Hinojosa will be the mentor for this course.
Registration opening soon.

Sherap Chamma: Mother of Wisdom and Love
with Marcy Vaughn
Ligmincha Learning is pleased to announce that we will be offering our course introducing the practices of Sherap Chamma, Mother of Wisdom and Love, taught by Marcy Vaughn.
In many cultures the primordial female energy is seen as the origin of existence and the source of all positive qualities. As such, Sherap Chamma is the source of wisdom, and her medicine is love and compassion. The teachings of Sherap Chamma comprise one of the most important tantric cycles of the ancient Bön tradition.
Join Marcy Vaughn in this special course to learn a beautiful and simple meditation practice that will enable you to connect directly with the divine feminine energy. With visualization, the sound of mantra, and deep contemplation, participants can make a personal connection to this sacred form of the universal mother, Sherap Chamma, and are guided through this connection to innate wisdom and the love and compassion that naturally radiate from that wisdom.
Those experienced in meditation as well as those who are beginning are warmly welcomed.

COURSE
Meditation, Breath and Movement
with Alejandro Chaoul-Reich
Location: ligminchalearning.com
Tsa lung is a series of ancient yogic practices that brings balance and harmony to our physical body, energy and mind. The term tsa lung can be translated as the energy-winds (Tibetan: lung, Skt. prana, Chinese, qi) in the Channels, for these practices are designed to open the subtle channels, guiding the healthy flow of the energy-winds so that we can enjoy good health and reconnect with more calmness to a quiet, peaceful mind. These exercises are easy to perform and are suitable for everyone.
There are three levels of tsa lung practice: external, internal and secret. External tsa lung works primarily on the physical level, using simple movements and breath exercises to balance the energies within our body. Internal tsa lung works more at the level of breath and subtle energy, bringing our attention to opening the five chakras and the central channel. Secret tsa lung uses subtle visualizations within the chakras and central channel to bring harmony to the mind, so that we can rest in our inner refuge, nature of mind. All of the tsa lung exercises integrate and balance the five elements within: earth, water, fire, wind and space.
These practices are drawn from the Bön Mother Tantra (Tibetan: Ma Gyud) the highest tantra in our tradition. They are a beautiful complement to any meditation practice, and particularly to dzogchen. They are frequently performed at the beginning of a session so that meditation is deeper and more stable. External tsa lung is commonly performed in all Ligmincha centers and groups.
