Based on examination of our situation\, we become aware of our inner wealth as well as what hinders it. By relying on the explanations we receive\, we cultivate a quality of presence to ourselves and others. Based on a progressive process made up of teachings\, guided meditations\, and opportunities for exchange\, Lama Jigme Rinpoche shows us how we can start with ourselves to cultivate the qualities that enrich our daily lives and support the path to liberation. Over the course of each course\, Rinpoche focuses on a specific theme of Buddhism that leads to daily practice made up of clarity and compassion.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Lama Jigme Rinpoche was born in Eastern Tibet in 1949. He received the entirety of his spiritual education from the 16th Karmapa\, Rangjung Rigpe Dorje\, who he stayed with for numerous years of his training. After fifty years of tireless activity to make the Buddha’s message accessible in Europe\, Rinpoche has acquired a thorough knowledge of Westerners. His example and his accessible teaching inspire all those who meet him around the world. He is the 16th Karmapa’s representative in Europe and the author of numerous works. Some of his teachings are available on Dhagpo Kagyu Ling’s YouTube channel and as booklets.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Important\n\nCourse begins Thursday\, May 29 at 10:30 am.\nThis teaching is given in English and translated into French.

He will also discuss how to simultaneously develop the path and the view that accompanies it\, by considering the relation of cause and effects between the two. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Jé Karma Trinleypa Rinpoche\, fourth of his name\, is the tülku of one of the greatest Tibetan masters of the late 15th and early 16th centuries. Born in Nepal in 1990\, he was recognized by the 14th Shamar Rinpoche at the age of four. He pursued studies in Buddhist philosophy and classical Tibetan language at the very well-reputed Sakya College in Derha Dhun\, India\, where he received his diploma in 2016. He then widened his academic knowledge of philosophy and Tibetology in London and Hamburg. In terms of spiritual education\, he received important empowerments from the greatest masters of the different lineages (His Holiness the 14th Shamarpa Mipham Chökyi Lodrö; His Holiness the 42nd Sakya Trinzin; Sherab Gyaltsen Rinpoche). \nThis educational path has made him an accomplished teacher\, known and respected in all Buddhist lineages for his exceptional scholarship and spiritual insight. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Information\n• Teacher: Jé Karma Trinleypa Rinpoche \n• Translation: This teaching is given in English and translated into French.

Among them\, the Sutra of Aspirations for Excellent Conduct\, also known as Samantabadhra’s Wishing Prayer\, represents the path of aspiration. The bodhisattva Samantabhadra’s wishing prayers are a model for all to follow. They are recited regularly by practitioners of all traditions and are a path that\, as Karmapa says\, “is a way of consciously dreaming.” \nAfter having clarified the meaning of the Heart Sutra\, which presents the path of view\, Trinlay Rinpoche will begin the detailed explanation of the second of the Five Royal Sutras.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Trinlay Rinpoche\, born in 1975\, was recognized as a tülku—manifestation of a Buddhist master—by the 16th Karmapa (1923–1981 C.E.). He brings together a Western academic education and in-depth Buddhist training under the guidance of eminent masters like the 14th Shamarpa. His dual culture\, his mastery of three languages (English\, French\, and Tibetan)\, and his ability to communicate the depth of Buddhist thought in an accessible way make him an exceptional teacher. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Important\n•  Translations: This teaching is given in French.

Its purpose is to enter the doorway of the Dharma\, and for this it is necessary for our minds to turn toward the Dharma. In order for our minds to turn toward the Dharma\, it is necessary to know the qualities of the three jewels and to develop convinced trust in them. This trust will not appear so long as we do not keep death and impermanence in mind. This is why we must begin by familiarizing ourselves with the impermanent nature of all things. The reminder of impermanence is born from understanding that it is difficult to find a human existence endowed with freedoms and wealths. The four common preliminary practices are the roots of practice.” (Translation of the preface of The Torch of Certain Meaning by Jamgon Kongtrul Lodrö Thaye). Over the course of these four days\, H.E. Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche will introduce us to this work composed by his predecessor. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n THE 4th JAMGON KONGTRUL RINPOCHE \nEarly Life and RecognitionBirth and LineageThe 4th Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche\, born on December 17\, 1995\, in Nepal\, is the son of the 2nd Beru Khyentse Rinpoche\, a revered master and lineage holder of the Karma Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism. Born as foretold\, his arrival was prophesied by the late Chobgye Trichen at the Great Manjushri’s Temple. \nRecognition and Naming CeremonyIn 1996\, the young Jamgon Rinpoche met the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje\, who bestowed upon him the name Karma Mingyur Dragpa Senge Thinle Kunkhyab Pal Sangpo\, confirming his recognition. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n The 14th Dalai Lama conducted the hair-cutting ceremony a year later. Under the guidance of Beru Khyentse Rinpoche\, the 14th Dalai Lama reaffirmed Jamgon Kongtrul as the reincarnation in 2000. \nEducationRinpoche’s early education included the Tibetan language and foundational practices of the Karma Kamtsang lineage.During his teenage years\, he studied at the Sakya Institute\, known for its rigorous discipline and comprehensive curriculum.Rinpoche received the three sets of complete vows: self-liberation\, Mahayana and Vajrayana vows.He delved into the study of significant Buddhist philosophies\, achieving notable results in Madhyamika and Bodhicaryavatara.Rinpoche received transmissions and empowerments from eminent lineage masters\, including the Chenrezig initiation from Gyalwa Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje\, Hevajra from His Holiness Kyabgon Gongma Trichen Rinpoche\, and many other transmissions from different lineages. \nThree-Year Retreat and Current ActivitiesIn the period from 2018 to 2022\, Rinpoche completed a traditional three-year retreat in Pharping.As a lineage holder\, he now divides his time between personal retreat and teaching activities.In 2017\, Rinpoche embarked on his first European tour\, bestowing teachings and empowerments upon thousands of students in various European countries\, such as France\, Germany\, Hungary and Poland. \nEuropean Tour and Global OutreachTogether with his father\, Beru Khyentse Rinpoche\, they lead the KhyenKong (Khyentse-Kongtrul) centers in Singapore\, Budapest (Hungary) and Warsaw (Poland). Rinpoche has also expanded his activities online\, offering more opportunities for students worldwide to attend teachings and receive transmissions from this highly realized master. \nSource of the biography:  https://jamgon-kongtrul.org/PRESENTATION/ \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Important information\n \n \n \n \n \n Important\n This retreat will continue the teachings that Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche began giving at Dhagpo Kundreul Ling from August 9 to 11.

This was instituted by the 3rd Karmapa Rangjung Dorje who presented his principal disciple Khaydrup Dragpa Senge with a ruby-red crown and conferred upon him the status Shamarpa that literally means ‘Holder of the Red Crown’. \nThat ruby-red crown is a replica of the black crown worn by the Karmapas\, and it symbolizes the inseparability of their spiritual connection as emanations of the same mind-stream as stated by the second Karmapa Karma Pakshi that “Future Karmapas will manifest in two forms”. That statement was later clarified by the fourth Karmapa Rolpe’i Dorje who designated that the Shamarpa reincarnates as a second manifestation of himself. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Click to read more\n In this light\, Tibetan historical records refer to the Karmapa as ‘Karmapa Shanagpa’ which means ‘Karmapa – Holder of the Black Crown’ and the Shamarpa as ‘Karmapa Shamarpa’ which means ‘Karmapa – Holder of the Red Crown’. These designations are found in the historical records authored by several well-known Tibetan Buddhist masters\, masters such as Golo Shonnu Pal (1392-1481)\, Pawo Tsuglag Trengwa (1504-1516)\, the fifth Dalai Lama\, Ngawang Lozang Gyamtso (1617-1682) and the eighth Situpa Chökyi Jungnay (1700-1774). In recent times\, Gyalwa Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje also emphasized the inseparability of the Karmapa Shamarnag legacy publicly on many occasions. \nThe Shamarpas are revered in the annals of Tibetan Buddhism as an emanation of Buddha Amitabha\, and are addressed honorifically as Künzig Shamar Rinpoche. \nIn keeping with this illustrious spiritual legacy and responsibilities\, the 14th Shamarpa\, Kunzig Shamar Rinpoche Mipham Chokyi Lodro(1952-2014) was recognized by the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa\, and thereby enthroned as the principal lineage holder of the Kamtsang Kagyu order. \nHe received from the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa\, who was his root guru as well as his uncle\, the entire cycle of Kagyu teachings\, and remained by his side till the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa passed away in 1981. Thereafter\, the 14th Shamarpa was the main lineage holder entrusted with upholding\, preserving and flourishing the order of Kamtsang Kagyu. In this\, one of his main responsibilities was to fulfill all the projects and aspirations of the late Gyalwa Karmapa\, as well as undertake chief responsibility to recognize and enthrone the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa. Thus\, he recognized the current 17th Gyalwa Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje and also guided and instructed his entire spiritual education that included the most profound and sacred transmissions of the Kagyü tradition. \nIn this way\, in the evolution of the Kamtsang order\, the 14th Shamarpa fulfilled his traditional role in ensuing the continuity of the authentic Kamtsang Kagyu order in a very turbulent era. Despite such upheavals\, he also developed a vast network of boundless activities in the service of preserving authentic Buddha dharma in general\, and the Kamtsang Kagyu order in particular over a period of just about 30 years till his Parinirvana in 2014.\n \n Download the program in PDF\n \n Sign up to follow online\n \n \n \n \n \n \nKunzik Shamar Rinpoche’s teaching videos : English 🇬🇧 –  Translation.
