We are pleased to announce that for the first time Phakchock Rinpoche's November Seminar teachings at Ka-Nying Shedrub Ling are available online at DharmaSun. Rinpoche gave profound teachings based on chapters of a song composed by 19th century Terchen Chokgyur Lingpa. In addition Rinpoche answered seemingly countless questions in his usual humoristic energetic style.
You can watch or listen to the recordings online at www.dharmasun.org from Dec24 - January14. Separate registration for the seminar is required. In case you already registered for Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche's November Seminar, separate registration is not required.
With best wishes,
DharmaSun

PS. The enclosed cards are images I made with a computer program I've developed, called Harmonic Vision, which analyzes the harmonics of a chanting voice and transforms it into form and color. Sometimes I chant Mantra, sometimes Harmonic Chant, sometimes Names or Words. The first card image looks so much like a crown. I couldn't help thinking of the Enthronement of Yansi Tulku Urgyen Rinpoché. The second one, very solar, was inspire by the winter solstice on dec. 21.

Chókyi Nyima Rinpoche, transcript from cnr fall seminar 08
In short what it comes down to is the collapse of present grasping ”this present grasping”. That’s how we separate conceptual mind from primordial awareness:
The intrinsic nature is aware. That is the awareness. This is RIGPA… and within that, there is no dualistic grasping.
Mind, consciousness, "cognition" -- these are all conceptual states, these are all grasping of the mind, these are all subtle forms of attachments.
The distinction between Buddha’s and sentient beings comes down to whether or not there is this awareness of the true intrinsic nature.
As long there is no such awareness, one is a sentient being. The moment there is recognition of the primordial state, the moment we come face to face with the intrinsic nature and for as long as we are able to let that recognition continue, for that long we are Buddhas.

Dear friends,
Four your happiness and prosperity in the new year, here is the Dzambhala Chant by Padmasambhava.
It can be included after the mantra in the Concise Daily Practice.
Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche gave a reading of it at Gomde Denmark this summer.
For those of you in Denmark, we remind you of the Dzambhala Market this coming weekend.
Warm wishes Erik and Tara at Gomde Denmark
