Teaching on Ngo Trod - Being with Dying
via Zoom & In-Person with Tempa Dukte Lama Tempa Lama will introduce the Bon teachings on death and dying and teach the practice of Ngo Trod or conscious dying. Ngo Trod is the practice of becoming familiar with the transition at the time of death including the dissolution of the elements, developing openness and trust toward the process of dying, and letting go of fear and attachments. |

Bardo Teaching
via Zoom & In-Person with Tempa Dukte Lama Tempa Lama will provide practice instructions for each Bardo stage and explain how we can guide and assist the dying person during and after death. Based on the Tibetan Book of the Dead, we will use death itself as a basic practice to develop strength within ourselves and keep our heart and mind free from fear and judgment. |

Importance and Benefits of the Jang Chok Ritual for the Deceased
with His Holiness 34th Menri Trizin Lungtok Dawa Dhargye Rinpoche & Tempa Dukte Lama The Jang Chok ritual for the deceased is an extensive ritual practice to guide the consciousness of the deceased and protect it from the terror of the Bardo experiences. The Bardo is the in-between state where the consciousness finds itself after separating from the physical body at the moment of death and before taking on a new body. |
Sunday, June 4th from 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM EST |
Du Tri Su Empowerment
with His Holiness 34th Menri Trizin Lungtok Dawa Dhargye Rinpoche & Tempa Dukte Lama Du Tri Su is the heart practice of Bon to clear the karmic conditioning and suffering of the lower realms and the obstacles in our present life. It is a powerful practice to call upon the souls of the deceased, offer them guidance, and help them find peace and wellbeing. The Du Tri Su mantra strengthens our vital energy, enables healing of our body and our relationships, and protects us from epidemics, disease, provocation of energy, hostile forces and disturbing spirits. |
