SUMMARY:Monday Night Chanted Prayers
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this special Monday evening when Rinpoche leads us in the chanted prayers of Medicine Buddha (Buddha of Infinite Healing). Medicine Buddha offers physical and mental healing\, protection from dangers and obstacles\, and helps living beings to eradicate the three poisons – attachment\, hatred\, and ignorance – which are the source of all sickness and danger. He is a Buddha Doctor\, depicted as having a dark blue (lapis lazuli) colored body\, this being an archetypal color of healing.  With his left hand he holds a bowl of healing nectars\, and with his right\, a medicine plant. Beginners to advanced practitioners are welcome\, prayer books are provided. Free of charge\, but donations are welcome.

SUMMARY:Thargyen Class Canceled on Jan.16th\, 2019
DESCRIPTION:Due to bad weather\, Rinpoche requested that Thargyen class on Wednesday\, January 16th\, 2019 be canceled.  He is concerned with unsafe road conditions\, especially for our Sangha members driving from Big Sur.   The class will resume next week\, January 23rd\, 2019. \nBest wishes everyone!  Tashi Delek! \n  \nAbout the Weekly Thargyen Class:  The Jewel Ornament of Liberation\, also known as the Thargyen\, was originally composed by Ven. Gampopa (1079-1153)\, and presents all of Buddha’s 84\,000 teachings\, kindly organized into a step-by-step outline of the path to enlightenment. It is a foundational text in the Kagyu tradition. We are so fortunate that our resident lama Khenpo Karten Rinpoche has written a beautiful 80 verse distillation entitled Excellent Path of Freedom:  The Jewel Ornament of Liberation in Brief\, translated into English by Jampa Tharchin. As Rinpoche states in his colophon\, it was written: “so that future disciples could know how to put all of the Jewel Ornament of Liberation into practice\, day and night\, in daily life…” Please join us for this very special weekly series as Rinpoche give commentary and teachings on his 80 verse composition\, with consecutive interpretation kindly provided by Jampa Tharchin.
