Thank you
It is something you need to receive directly from a qualified teacher.
Re: The Three Skyes
Yes, thank you Malcolm
I don't speak about giving detailed practice here, just give some idea of what kind of practice is it, and to what "skyes" it refers to.
Like you can speak about Thogel, the 4 visions etc. without explaining the practice itself.

Although many individuals in this age appear to be merely indulging their worldly desires, one does not have the capacity to judge them, so it is best to train in pure vision.

Chokling Rinpoche have a very interesting schedule this year in Europe. In Denmark he is giving very detalied teachings on the Korwa Dongtruk. But the most interesting is these 4 days on the three-fold sky.

Re: The Three Skyes
Yes am going. A long trek from Wales to Austria but I am absolutely sure it will be worth it....
Re: The Three Skyes
Can anyone come to this? Also how do these seminars generally look like?

Pero.
Probably best to contact someone at Gomde Austria about this.

Re: The Three Skyes
Chokling Rinpoche tends to do more practice-based retreats, so i would highly recommend this one. Also the centre in Austria is beautiful: great location, wonderful building, marvelous food, nice people. Well worth the trip. If you have any questions just contact them and i'm sure they'll be happy to help out any way they can, including pickup from the train station or airport.Pero wrote:Can anyone come to this?

Can the spelling error in the title of this thread be corrected? Every time I see it, I think "The three births? What are they?"
