Retreat—Guidance for Living and Dying

RETREAT

Guidance for Living and Dying

with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche

Commentary on the Bardo Teachings

The word “bardo” means “in between” in Tibetan, including the time between life and death, and the time between death and rebirth.

During this retreat, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche will offer guidance on living and dying. Rinpoche will lead participants in exploring the transition between life in death, including preparation for dying, the process of dying, practices related with the bardo, how to prepare for one’s own death, and how to help others who are dying.

In the process of dying, one of the most challenging things and what makes transition difficult, is attachment. A key issue is that things always change and we are always in transition. Rinpoche will guide participants in discovering the changeless self within all of our changing experiences—the stillness, silence and spaciousness beyond the body, speech and mind.

The retreat is open to people at all levels of spiritual practice, and welcomes those with life-threatening illnesses, caregivers, hospice professionals and all who wish to develop and deepen their relationship to life and to death.
