RETREAT

 

The Body of Light: Transformation Through Space, Light and Energy

with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche and Guest Teacher, Venerable Sogan Rinpoche

Our true nature—pure, open, luminous—can be easily obscured by our roles and responsibilities, accomplishments and failures, losses and memories, hopes and fears.

Habits of aversion, grasping and ignorance obscure our self-recognition. But when we rest deeply, the many layers of our identities loosen and release. We discover something true within ourselves—the body of light. This light is inherent in every living being; it is not something separate from us. It cannot be found by searching. It cannot be created through effort. Connecting to who we truly are, we manifest the enlightened nature of our body, speech and mind, our positive qualities, our spontaneous creativity.

In this retreat, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche will guide us to recognize and release what obscures the light of being.  In his heartfelt and genuine way, Rinpoche will share his poems of awareness and guide meditations to support us to release the efforts of who we are not and recognize who we are, freeing us to connect to the source of joy, love, compassion and creativity within.

Venerable Sogan Rinpoche will join Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche for one session on Saturday, April 17.

This retreat is open to all, with no pre-requisites. Tiered pricing is available to accommodate different financial circumstances.
