Phakchok Rinpoche has kindly agreed to come and teach again at Gomde, Lindholme Hall.
Rinpoche will teach on ‘The Noble Wisdom of Passing’ Sutra. In this beautifully concise Mahayana sutra that is merely a page long, Buddha Shakyamuni pithily summarised the five indispensible key points that every Bodhisattva must cultivate and master before they pass beyond sorrow. These five points of impermanence, great compassion, freedom from reference points, non-existence, and Buddhahood are universally applicable to any Buddhists on the sutra path of Mahayana and the tantric path of Vajrayana up to Mahamudra and Dzogchen.
Rinpoche hopes to be accompanied on his visit by Lama Sherap.
Lama Sherab will compliment Rinpoche’s teaching schedule and lead morning meditation sessions and teach traditional ritual.
