The Seven Mirrors of Dzogchen is a powerful heart-essence teaching from the Tibetan Bön Buddhist tradition. It offers a direct introduction to the clear, open awareness of our true nature as well as methods for maintaining the recognition of who we truly are.

All are welcome to join Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche for this special two-week online summer retreat, beginning June 20.

The following letter from Ligmincha President Rob Patzig shares some of Ligmincha’s many accomplishments and plans and requests your financial assistance to continue support our capacity to support students.

After much discussion and the desire not to increase the risk of exposure to the coronavirus for Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche or retreat attendees, the Spring Retreat previously scheduled at Serenity Ridge has been moved online. Everyone is welcome to attend the three-day live retreat on “Discovering the Melody of Silence,” now being offered through Zoom April 3–5.
