About this event
10.30 am – 1.00 pm: "Discriminating the Three Vows" by Sakya Pandita (part 2)
Lama Jampa is giving a series of teachings that will transmit Sakya Pandita's extensive presentation of the Buddhist path.
Sakya Pandita’s masterpiece offers a brilliant examination of the spiritual disciplines found in the Three Vehicles. Topics dealt with in this work include the reality of the Buddha nature, the ethics of a bodhisattva and the correct practice of Vajrayana.
This is a rare opportunity to receive one of the main texts taught in the Sakya Shedra (College of Studies). Dates are confirmed for the subsequent parts of this teaching:
- PART 3: 25 FEB 2023 LONDON
- PART 4: 03 JUN 2023 BRISTOL
- PART 5: 30 SEP 2023 BRISTOL
- PART 6: 18 NOV 2023 LONDON
Online booking for each part will be available a few weeks before each event via the Dechen London and Dechen Bristol websites.
The morning session is open to all.
2.30 pm– 4.30 pm: Initiation of White Mahakala
Following lunch Lama Jampa will bestow the initiation of White Mahakala or Gönkar, the ‘Great White Lord’ , a powerful protector of those practicing the Vajrayana. This practice is also efficacious in bringing about prosperity for the furtherance of the holy Dharma.
*Please note that in order to attend the initiation in the afternoon one must have made a formal commitment to the Buddhist path through ‘Taking Refuge‘. If you would like to request to take refuge prior to the initiation please email bristol@dechen.org
