Dear Friends,

This Monday, November 1st, will begin our season of practice. PemaKhandro_42ngakpa.org

This begins the period when I challenge all the members to practice meditation every day, without missing a day until Losar, the Lunar New Year, March 3rd 2022. This will be 123 days of practice! 

We will kick off the season of practice together with a community night. 

That is this Monday Nov 1st, at 6pm PST/9pm EST. 

  • I will facilitate a member to member conversation about the role of practice in our lives and our goals for the season of practice. 
  • And, I will lead us in the first practice of the season of practice as we all begin together. 

All members are welcome! It would be wonderful to see you and hear your voice, to chat together and laugh together. 

The link to join will be sent to members on Monday. 

Can’t attend Monday night or want more support for 123 Days of Practice?

Looking forward to celebrating together Monday night!

From a Buddhist point of view, when we know how to meditate, we learn how to work with mind and emotions. We have a practice for unraveling conditioned scripts and unconscious habits. Meditation is a pathway to discovering human goodness by making peace with our mind. Ultimately, it is a method for getting free from dissatisfaction, resolving confusion and waking up to see reality more clearly.

Online Training with Pema Khandro – Learn at Your Own Pace
Includes 1 video recording.
 

Considered the practice most similar to our experience at death, Dream Yoga is about navigating in the real and unreal aspects of our experience without falling asleep to awareness. It is a practice of recognizing the nature of our minds.

This Teaching focuses on the Tibetan Buddhist methods for navigating Dream, Waking Life, and Sleep.

Waking, dreaming, and deep sleep present transformations of perception and they highlight the continuity and discontinuity of experience. Through recognizing the opportunities for meditative awareness in these states, we can understand our own minds and face all our experiences with greater presence. A teaching based on the Six Yogas of Naropa – which is a system of harnessing ordinary experience for awakening.
