Registration Open for Summer Retreat: June 23–July 7, 2019
His Holiness, the 34th Menri Trizin, Is Honored Guest Teacher
We are honored to have His Holiness, the 34th Menri Trizin (abbot of Menri Monastery and spiritual head of the Tibetan Bön tradition), join Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche in teaching the practice of tummo (inner heat) at Serenity Ridge’s Summer Retreat. Tummo teachings include both tantric and dzogchen support practices to burn away subtle obscurations and cultivate bliss.
Everyone is welcome to attend this retreat, which is Part 2 of a three-part series that will be completed in summer 2020. Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche encourages participants to attend both weeks, if possible. If you are only able to attend one week, however, Rinpoche recommends that you attend the first week.
His Holiness will join Tenzin Rinpoche in teaching the practice of tummo during both weeks of the retreat. The tummo teachings come from the text Ku Sum Rang Shar (Spontaneous Arising of the Three Kayas). This text is by Shardza Tashi Gyaltsen Rinpoche, a Bön master who achieved the body of light, or rainbow body, in 1934. Over this summer and the next you will be guided to engage body, speech and mind with the Tibetan yogas of tsa lung and trul khor, and with the prayer, mantra, visualization and inner breath practices of the tummo.
The retreat will include teachings on the Three Great Mantras. In addition, during the last two days of the second week (July 6–7), His Holiness will give teachings and empowerment on "The Knowledge and Wisdom of Longevity: Teachings from the Tsewang Jarima."
