SUMMARY:Daylong Teaching Retreat "The Four Dharmas of Gampopa"
DESCRIPTION:Immediately after our regularly scheduled Saturday morning meditation session on June 8\, we will hold a day of teaching and meditation. \nOur teacher\, Khenpo Karten Rinpoche will be giving an explanation of the “Four Dharmas of Gampopa”\, a prayer we frequently recite at MDC. This will be followed by a session of meditation in the afternoon\, and will be offered as a silent retreat to help focus the mind onto the importance of these teachings. \nGampopa\, the author of The Jewel Ornament of Liberation\, was the heart disciple of Milarepa and a revered practitioner and meditator in the Kagyu lineage. \nThis text by him\, “The Four Dharmas of Gampopa”\, succinctly offers a complete guide to practice for practitioners and leads us through the gradual path to liberation. This teaching is precious. This is a special opportunity. \nPlease bring a bag lunch to enjoy. Snacks and tea will be available throughout the day. \nSuggested donation: $40 for the general public\, $25 for students and those with limited income. No one will be turned away due to lack of funds. All are welcome!

SUMMARY:A Public Teaching by Khenpo Karten Rinpoche on "The Four Seals of Buddhism"
DESCRIPTION:As Buddhism developed and spread throughout the world\, many distinct lineages and philosophical schools emerged. While the various Buddhist traditions differ widely in their prayers and practices\, they are all unified by a belief in the “Four Seals or Characteristics of Dharma”: \nImpermanence \nEmotions resulting in pain/suffering \nEmptiness or Selflessness \nEnlightenment that is beyond concepts \nIn this public talk\, Khenpo Karten Rinpoche\, a very caring and compassionate teacher in the Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism\, will give a clear and accessible teaching on the meaning of the Four Seals and how to put an understanding of them into daily practice. \nWe invite you to take advantage of this special opportunity. Whether you are a Buddhist\, curious about Buddhism\, or have an interest in comparative religions\, this program will be very insightful and beneficial. \nKhenpo Karten Rinpoche was born in Nangchen\, East Tibet\, and received a traditional monastic education at several of Asia’s greatest Buddhist training centers. He suffered many hardships with the Chinese occupation of Tibet. Upon his escape to India\, Rinpoche was subsequently authorized by the Dalai Lama to come to the West and teach the Dharma. Rinpoche has groups of students in Europe\, Asia\, and North America\, and currently is the Spiritual Director at the Manjushri Dharma Center in Pacific Grove\, CA. \nSuggested donation: $20 \nAll are welcome to attend regardless of ability to make a donation.
