LA baby!
"All phenomena of samsara depend on the mind, so when the essence of mind is purified, samsara is purified. Since the phenomena of nirvana depend on the pristine consciousness of vidyā, because one remains in the immediacy of vidyā, buddhahood arises on its own. All critical points are summarized with those two." - Longchenpa

Does one have to be a DC member to attend the Tselgyegar Retreat?
How far ahead must one register for these events?

Yes and generally one can register till the day they start. One can become a new member then too and discount the membership fee from the price of the retreat (last time I checked it was still like this). At least that's how it goes in this side of the pond with Merigar. :smile: I think over there it might be the same, but it's better if someone from there could confirms this.

Actually you don't have to be a member to attend a retreat. Non-members just don't get any discounts on the price.
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.

Heh, you say that but I'm younger than you and my memory already totally sucks. :D

In merger they created a "temporary" membership.

But not in US.

Had no idea. I think all year round DC membership is worth every penny, but I guess it was a cool thing they did then.

I'm trying to swing Los Angeles or New York, preferably Los Angeles. Travel & logistics are a bit tricky. :broke:

I believe it's to be the Invocation of Samantabhadra.

I just registered for the retreat. It's to be a research trip for me as well.
