Re: Dudjom Ngondro Help
I attended the retreat but perhaps I'm missing something - is there a manual or outline how to actually practice the ngondro?
Many thanks vajra brothers/sisters

Re: Ngondro Help
If you get on the Abhaya Fellowship mailing list ( link scroll to bottom of page), on a few Saturdays a month at 10 am PDT there is regular practice followed by a teaching by Rinpoche. This could give you a sense of community and enhance your practice. Chakung Jigme Wangdrak Rinpoche is a wonderful ...

Re: Looking for Tibetan medicine teacher in the states
I studied at Shang Shung for 3 years and can definitely say it's in-depth. It's a bit dry presentation but if you have a passion for it - you'll do great. Knowing Tibetan alphabet and lots of vocabulary helps a TON. Many of the lectures are almost like translating the textbooks. I graduated from TME...

Re: Deep-rooted Hindu wants to practice Buddha Dharma esp. Dzogchen
If one is "deeply rooted Hindu" then why want to become Buddhist? Choose one or the other. There nothing wrong with becoming Buddhist but don't try to apply Buddhism to Hinduism. Just like one can play football and do ballet, one can't do them both at the same time. Choose one and stick wi...

There is no samsara to be emptied, it only exists in the unenlightened mind. Nirvana and samsara only exist in the mind

Re: Curious about daily virtual practice
I highly recommend Drikung Kagyu. I've been a student of Garchen Rinpoche for 20 years and Drupon Rinchen Dorjee Rinpoche for over 15 years. You do not need any pre-requisites to attend teachings unless otherwise noted. It's good idea to go slowly and work into it at your own pace. Compassion is #1 ...

I used to run a Drikung center and me and another board member were the only ones managing FB, email blasts, responding to emails etc., as previously mentioned, we all have day jobs and it can be very difficult and Garchen Rinpoche's health is #1 priority and His engagement obviously has been reduce...

Re: India / Nepal
It might be easier to narrow your search to teachers or lineages that you practice. There are literally dozens of opportunities spread between the two countries. If you want to get your toes wet, Kopan is well known for it's courses for Westerners. You can also check out Rangjung Yeshse Institute. B...

Re: "Past-life regression" in Tibetan Buddhism?
I don't think vajrayana thinks it's necessary or beneficial, practitioners can barely sit on a cushion to meditate and still scream at other drivers in traffic, what use if past lives if we're not fixing the current one?
