What does it really mean to “be close” to someone? Rinpoche shows how we can use the quarantine or isolation to reflect on our ideas about social distance and closeness.
When I read this section of the book Emotional Rescue I felt that Ponlop Rinpoche had specifically written that for me! So often I’ve tried and failed at difficult conversations, leaving them full of regret, or worse, with more anger and hurt on both sides.
Nalandabodhi New York offers “Essential Meditation” on Mondays, from 6:30 PM – 8:00 PM Eastern Time. Essential Meditation introduces and explores techniques of calm-abiding (shamatha) meditation.
No experience required and all traditions are welcome.
Being human is such a crazy ride. We have these tumultuous emotions that seem unique to our species. We are animals that dream of the divine. We generate art and healing, but also war and slavery.
The future doesn’t have to be uncertain! Ponlop Rinpoche teaches on how we can create a better future from this new beginning.
Save the date! Friday, June 26, 2020 through Sunday, June 28, 2020.
Join Nalandabodhi for an open, online retreat with Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche, Acharya Lama Tenpa, and other Nalandabodhi Teachers.
