Mind training is a method of Mahayana Buddhism that enables a transformation to take place in our mind, which is ordinarily attached to its identity and lost in a form of complacency. This method allows for revealing the vast compassion and profound wisdom of awakened mind.
Drawing on the commentary by Karma Thinley Rinpoche (b. 1931), Lama Jampa Thaye will introduce the theme of the Seven Points of Mind Training over the course of this weekend.

A British citizen born in 1952, he has received teachings and empowerments from a great number of masters, in particular Karma Thinley Rinpoche, whose regent he became in 1988. He has taught at Manchester University, where he received a doctorate for his work on Tibetan religious history. Today, he teaches at KIBI (Karmapa International Buddhist Institute) in New Delhi and around the world; he is the author of numerous works. He is appreciated for his knowledge of traditional texts and his ability to present them in a way that is accessible to Western audiences.
