During the morning sessions of retreat Ven. Khenpo Tsewang Rinpoche will elucidate these precious and concise pith instructions on Dzogchen meditation.
Sherik Dorje Nӧnpo Gyü (Tib. ཤེས་རིག་རྡོ་རྗེ་རྣོན་པོའི་རྒྱུད་, shes rig rdo rje rnon po’i rgyud), The Sharp Vajra of Conscious Awareness Tantra, is one of the five Dzogchen tantra termas revealed by Dudjom Lingpa through a pure vision.
Being part of the Daknang Yeshe Drawa cycle, the full name of Sherik Dorje Nӧnpo Gyü is “The Sharp Vajra of Awareness Tantra, from the Matrix of Pure Appearances and Primordial Consciousness, the Quintessence of the Great Mystery of the Mantrayana, The Primordially Pure Absolute Space of Samanthabadri, the Spontaneously Actualized Treasury of Liberation.”
This extraordinary tantra recounts how Dudjom Lingpa experienced Kuntuzangpo directly in a vision, giving teachings to and answering questions from his own emanation’s retinue of bodhisattvas.
Participation is possible by webcast as well as on-site.
You can join for all or part of this retreat.
