2016 Winter Dzogchen Retreat

2016 Winter Dzogchen Retreat
with Ven. Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche
January 16–23, 2016
Empowerment of the Twenty-One Taras
according to the Lineage of Jigme Lingpa and HH Dudjom
Rinpoche with Dzogchen Teachings on the Outer, Inner, Secret,
and Ultimate Meanings of the Praise to the Twenty-One Taras
by HH Dudjom Rinpoche, according to The Smile of Sun
and Moon by Ven. Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche
The twenty-one emanations of Tara—the mother of
all the buddhas—manifest swiftly to protect sentient
beings from all fears, pacify evils, disease, and
misfortune, increase longevity, wealth, and merit,
overpower deluded perception and destroy the
enemy of five poisons: one's own disturbing
emotions. Ven. Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche's
commentary presents The Praise to the Twenty-One
Taras in view of Longchen Nyingthig terma teaching
revealed by the great terton Jigme Lingpa. It has four
levels of meaning: the outer, inner, secret, and the
ultimate meaning explained according to Prajnaparamita, Mahayoga, Anuyoga, and Atiyoga.
Born on the world’s highest plateaus in Tibet, Venerable
Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche began an extraordinary life as a Tibetan Buddhist monk learning
mindfulness, meditation, and philosophy taught by the
Buddha. By studying and practicing the vast Buddhist
literature on the science of mind, Khenpo Rinpoche
developed his understanding and wisdom. Khenpo
Rinpoche was enthroned by HH Dudjom Rinpoche as an
abbot in the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism. In 1980
he came to New York where he and his revered brother,
Ven. Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche (1938-2010)
founded the Padmasambhava Buddhist Center. The PBC
West Palm Beach branch is one of the many centers in the
USA, and teachings were first given here in 1983. Khenpo
Rinpoche is an expert of Theravada, Mahayana, and
Vajrayana Buddhism, and is a master of Dzogchen. He is
the author of several learned works in Tibetan, and has
co-authored over 25 Dharma books in English.
