Shambhala Teachings and Bodhisattva Vow

Tap into the power of all the Buddhas to open your heart to liberate all sentient beings. The infinite ultimate Bodhicitta needed to realize enlightenment and liberate beings as limitless as space, may be simple to understand but difficult to cultivate. In our world, it can be hard enough to develop worldly compassion and sympathy for friends and family; never mind those with opposing political views or who you perceived to have wronged you. To develop the heart of enlightenment big enough to genuinely care for the whole world selflessly, like the great bodhisattvas of Shambhala, takes a huge, continuous effort. Peace is possible for the world, but we need strong motivation, huge strength, and dedication to create a Golden Age of Peace.

Khentrul Rinpoche will bestow the Bodhisattva vow and a prayer on Shambhala to help connect us with the power of love and the warrior nature that never gives up like all the Shambhala Kalki Kings such as Pundarika, an emanation of Chenrezig. Through this unique connection, we can, with sustained effort, open our hearts to truly cultivate the capacity of unconditional love and compassion to create a Golden Age of time on earth. Khentrul Rinpoche will guide us in teaching how the Shambhala Kings are the ultimate compassionate warriors that we can become as well.

INCLUDED IN THIS EVENT
-Bodhisattva vow and booklet, 
-Shambhala Prayer Oral transmission
-A preliminary teaching and practice session with a Q&A session.

Khentrul Rinpoche

Jonang Kalachakra and Rimé Master

Khentrul Rinpoché Jamphel Lodrö is the founder and spiritual director of Dzokden. Rinpoche is the author of Unveiling Your Sacred Truth, The Great Middle Way: Clarifying the Jonang View of Other-Emptiness, A Happier Life, and The Hidden Treasure of the Profound Path. Rinpoche spent the first 20 years of his life herding yak and chanting mantras on the plateaus of Tibet. Inspired by the bodhisattvas, he left his family to study in a variety of monasteries under the guidance of over twenty-five masters in all the Tibetan Buddhist traditions. Due to his non-sectarian approach, he earned himself the title of Rimé (unbiased) Master and was identified as the reincarnation of the famous Kalachakra Master Ngawang Chözin Gyatso. While at the core of his teachings is the recognition that there is great value in the diversity of all spiritual traditions found in this world; he focuses on the Jonang-Shambhala tradition. Kalachakra (wheel of time) teachings contain profound methods to harmonize our external environment with the inner world of body and mind, ultimately bringing about the golden age of peace and harmony (dzokden).
