August 11–16, 2020: 'Body of Light'
with Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
Every one of us has the possibility of becoming more open, aware and creative by lightening the densities that prevent us from experiencing ourselves as we truly are. Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche will teach practices that guide us towards this essential state of pure space and awareness, the body of light. These practices take us through the layers of our pain identities as they manifest in body, speech, mind, positive qualities and spontaneous creativity. As we release first the gross and then the subtler blockages, we discover the body of light that becomes accessible.
There are no prerequisites to attend these teachings. Everyone is welcome. Teachings in English, with translation into various languages. Online via Zoom.

September 17–20, 2020: 'Heart Drops of Dharkmakaya – Powa and Bardo'
with Khenpo Tenpa Yungdrung Rinpoche
Chamma Ling Retreat Center, Wilga, Poland
The nature of our own mind is obscured by clouds of thoughts and emotions, until the master shows us the source, the essence, "a drop of heart." This is the direct introduction to dzogchen, the highest and most subtle path of meditation in the Bon tradition. During this retreat, Khenpo Rinpoche will teach about powa (transference of consciousness during death) and bardo (teachings about death and afterlife).
The text Heart Drops of Dharmakaya was written by Shardza Tashi Gyaltsen, who at the time of his death in 1935 attained the rainbow body. These essential teachings are presented in the book Heart Drops of Dharmakaya, with commentary by Yongdzin Tenzin Namdak Rinpoche, widely revered as the greatest living dzogchen master of the Bön lineage.
