Losar Greetings from Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche

Triple Excellence retreat at Gomde Denmark

In the instructions known as The Triple Excellence, Tara, the female Buddha of wisdom in action, reveals a complete path of perfect awakening. These teachings describe the entire Buddhist path in gradual practical instructions. With its rich and vibrant interface, The Triple Excellence is perfectly accessible and profound for both beginners and seasoned practitioners of Tibetan Buddhism.

 

The great treasure master of Tibet, Chokgyur Dechen Lingpa, received these profound and pithy instructions from Tara herself and they are transmitted in a precious lineage of accomplished masters. In clear steps Tara's instructions cover all three vehicles of Buddhism (The Triple Excellence) from the Vajrayana perspective.

 

This spring, Lama Tenzin Sangpo will lead a unique retreat seminar involving practices from all Three Excellences, which will be held at Rangjung Yeshe Gomde in Denmark.

The retreat will unfold over nine days. Beginning with fundamental mind training described in the First Excellence, we will proceed to the Bodhisattva path of the Great Vehicle. We will train in recognizing the presence and power of loving-kindness and compassion and we will receive instruction on how to let these qualities flourish further. 

After having trained in opening our heart with loving kindness and compassion, we will cultivate the vision of the equality of self and other and begin the practice of exchanging ourselves with others. Through this we will arrive at the aspiring aspect of the altruistic mind of awakening (bodhicitta), and from there learn how to train in the first five paramita, - the actions of a bodhisattva.

Having worked with central practices belonging to the First and Second Excellences, we will, as an inspiration for the Third Excellence, learn how to perform the outer sadhana of Green Tara.

 

This retreat is open to all who are interested in the instructions on Tara’s Triple Excellence – you are most welcome to join us here regardless of whether you are already participating in the online program offered through www.dharmasun.org, or not.

 

The practice seminar begins on Friday, March the 30th in the evening. Registration will be open from 3 pm. Dinner is at 6 pm and after dinner, the first teaching will take place.

 

Prices for room and board:

400,- DKK / 52,- Euro per person per night in a double room or the dormitory (the rooms will be filled first)

600,- DKK / 81,- Euro per person per night in a single room

 

3 vegetarian meals per day are included. There is no childcare available.

 

Registration is open at www.gomde.dk

 

Wishing you auspicious connections!

Tsoknyi Rinpoche Seminar at Gomde

A Dzogchen Approach to an Open Heart and Open Mind

October 13 - 19, 2012

In this seminar Tsoknyi Rinpoche will teach us how we can experientially touch the nature of mind through the profound Dzogchen teachings. In this way Rinpoche will explain how to understand and work with the subtle body, ego development and how to find and develop "essence love," which is the hallmark of a truly alive, open and free human being.



This retreat will explore the dynamic interplay of the two truths on and off the cushion as a way to integrate every aspect of our lives; that we are Buddha nature and on the path to its realization.

Registration: www.gomde.dk

Tenga Rinpoche's health - February 2012

There's an announcement on the official site of Benchen Monastery KTM (www.benchen.org):

"News from Tenga Rinpoche (Feb. 11, 2012)

Since 13th December Rinpoche has been here in Kathmandu and is recovering very, very slowly. Rinpoche's condition is like this:
The amputations of the left foot and the finger have healed very, very well. Now Rinpoche's health problem is his heart valves, two valves do not open or close very well. As a consequence of this his lungs fill with water which makes it difficult to move and causes him to cough a lot. Rinpoche is also losing his appetite and he has lost a lot of weight and has become quite thin.

On 30th December Rinpoche went to Norvic Hospital, which is one of the best heart hospitals in Nepal. At that time the doctor prescribed a change of medication from what he got in Singapore. Rinpoche returned to Benchen Monastery on 1st January and is still very weak.

The winter-spring course started on 30th January. Rinpoche gave teaching for two days, mornings and afternoons, and on the second day he was completely exhausted, especially because of nausea, and had to rest. The rest of the course was taught by Sangter Tulku and Khenpo Sonam Gyurme and Khenpo Tsundru. On 6th February Rinpoche again visited the doctor at the hospital and was told that his health had not gotten worse and again his medicine was changed. Rinpoche returned to the monastery the same day.

Now Rinpoche's appetite improved a little and he is sleeping better and feels a little more fresh, although he is still quite weak. Now Rinpoche is unable to attend the Bodhgaya monlam and would like to recover in Kathmandu.

That's all for now.

Namaste, from Tempa"

Syv dages meditationsretreat på Gomde

”Når man efter et par dage er begyndt at blive uforstyrret, så er tiden inde til at afdække den naturlige hjertevarme, at udforske hvad det er som tænker og hvad bevidsthed er.”

--- Erik Pema Kunsang

Uddyb din meditationspraksis i et intensivt ugelangt retreat med nænsom tilstedeværelse og indsigtstræning. Samtidig får du mulighed for at nyde høje himle, Danmarks smukkeste natur og Gomdes æbleplantager.


Retreat’et ledes af Erik Pema Kunsang, som har et langt livs erfaring som meditationslærer og som oversætter og assistent for nogle af vor tids største lærere indenfor den tibetansk-buddhistiske Dzogchen-tradition.

Hver dag består af perioder med meditation, undervisning, og tid til kontemplative gåture på smukke Helgenæs. Ugen foregår i tavshed uden mobil eller internet.

Der er mulighed for at modtage individuel vejledning i meditation og praksisplan.

Undervisningen tilpasses den enkelte, gennem ligevægt, klarhed og naturlig tilstedeværelse (shamatha, vipashyana og deres uadskillelighed).

Karuna Workshops Benefit Year 2012 at Gomde

Kære alle,

Som I nok allerede ved, er Gomde i en situation i år, hvor der er behov for en ekstra indsats for at få en god økonomi og sikre Gomde og Strandgaarden.

Derfor har vi besluttet at gøre noget ekstra ved at udnævne 2012 til støtteår og under kampagnen ”Karuna Workshops Benefit Year 2012 at Gomde” tilbyde en række workshops, hvor alle donerer deres tid og al overskud går til Gomde.

Fem spændende og unikke undervisere har tilbudt at afholde kurser på Gomde og donere deres tid og evner. Programmet er som følger:

1. Følelsesmæssig intelligens og kommunikation, Jesper Skovlund, 20. -22. april, 2012.

2. Fotografi og meditation: At se med et åbent sind – udforskning af forgængelighed gennem billeder, Olav Nyhus, 4.-6. maj, 2012.

3. Medical qigong: “Biyun health preservation method”, Göran Jakobsen, 2. -3. juni, 2012.

4. Lær at dø fredeligt – praktiske anvisninger, der hjælper en selv og andre ved livets afslutning, Erik Pema Kunsang, 24.- 26. august, 2012.

5. Medfølelsens psykolog: Bevist nærvær og medfølelse, Antonia Sumbundu, 2.-4. november, 2012.

Der er kursusbeskrivelser for disse workshops på http://www.karunaworkshops.dk/ og en samlet poster >>her<<.

For at disse kurser kan gennemføres er der dog brug for frivillige hjælpere (i alt minimum 15 personer, dvs. tre personer pr. workshop) til at hjælpe med det praktiske omkring kurserne. Til hver workshop er der brug for 1 administrator, 1 kok, og 1 praktisk hjælper. Som frivillig kan du deltage gratis i kurserne, så meget som arbejdet ellers tillader det. Du bor og spiser naturligvis også gratis.

Kurserne kan kun afholdes hvis der er frivillige til arrangere dem, så din hjælp er meget påskønnet. Gomde vil gerne bidrage til støttekampagnen ved at hjælpe med at koordinere de frivillige og sætte dem sammen i teams. Hvis du har mulighed for at hjælpe med til en eller flere workshops bedes du sende en mail til: gomde@gomde.dk

Skriv til os inden den 17. februar.


Vi håber at høre fra dig!

Sunny News from Gomde England

One of our main practical goals at Gomde, Lindholme Hall is to produce energy equivalent to our needs. As many of you will be aware from his many teachings, Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche is highly supportive of the efforts of all his students to positively contribute to the environment and reduce, as much as possible, any negative impact.

Gomde has significant and increasing running costs. Amongst its biggest current expenses are heat and electricity. Micro Generating Systems (MGS) generate electricity from renewable sources and the electricity produced is either used by the owner/generator themselves or is exported to the national grid.

In 2011 the government operated a grant scheme with guaranteed payments to MGS´s for 25 years for each KW of electricity generated, whether used or exported to the grid. Following thorough research, the estimated savings on electricity bills and government subsidy payments were calculated to be between £3,500- £4000 per year. In the course of the 25 year agreement the benefit to Gomde is calculated as approximately £125,000; combined energy
saving and government subsidy.

With this in mind, and with Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche´s kind permission and encouragement, we
contracted to install a 9.2 KW peak, photo- electric array on the south facing roof of the
meditation hall (44 panels in all) with a cost to Gomde of £20,900. It is now installed.
