Four Yogas of Mahamudra, Weekend Retreat in Crestone, CO, Nov 18-20, 2016

Ringu Tulku Rinpoche will teach on the Four Yogas of Mahamudra, in Crestone, Colorado, on the weekend of Nov 18-20, 2016.

The Four Yogas of Mahamudra can be understood on many levels from the basic essential teachings of the buddha dharma to the highest teachings we can experience.  With this understanding, Rinpoche will guide us in his inimitable style with stories, humor and deep knowledge.

Rinpoche discusses the Four Yogas of Mahamudra in his text Like Dreams and Clouds (available from Bodhicharya), as four stages in the teaching, of developing (1) one-pointedness; (2) simplicity; (3) one taste; and (4) no-meditation (see Like Dreams and Clouds: Emptiness and Interdependence, Mahamudra and Dzogchen, pp. 45-49).

Schedule: Friday evening (7-9), Saturday (9-12 and 2-5), Sunday (9-11 and 1-3)
