This is a profound yet not complicated long life practice from the
Yangzab treasure teaching cycle. It involves both visualization and
working with the breath. Lamchen Gyalpo Rinpoche will give the
transmission for this practice along with the pith instructions
that make it possible to strengthen ones life force and increase
ones life span. This is a rare opportunity to receive this from
Lamchen Gyalpo Rinpoche, who has not given this practice publicly
before. All with the motivation to benefit others all are welcome
to attend this profound transmission and teachings. The practice
text for the Amulet of the Sun and Moon will be available at these
teachings.
Lamchen Gyalpo Rinpoche is recognized as an extraordinary scholar
and practitioner possessing great realization of both Dzogchen and
Mahamudra. He is uniquely qualified to transmit the Drigung
Dzogchen teachings. He has studied extensively with some of the
greatest masters of Tibetan Buddhism. From His Holiness the 16th
Karmapa, Gyalpo Rinpoche received such profound teachings as
Mahamudra, and Karmapa Rangjung Dorje's Tsig-chigma; from Situ Pema
Wangchog, Abishekas, commentaries and experiential insight; from
Zigar Kongtul Rinpoche, Rinchen Terzo and Abishekas, commentaries,
and transfer of experiential insight on all Yidam deities; from
Ripa Seljey Rinpoche, Karma Kagyu empowerments and teachings; and
from Dilgo Khentse Rinpoche, Nyingmapa tantras, sadhanas, and
experiential insight in general and Nyingthig Yabshi teachings in
particular.
Gyalpo Rinpoche received from other such enlightened masters as
Poli Khenchen Dorjechang, Nyoshul Khenpo Jampal Dorje and Khenpo
Thubten Rinpoche numerous aspects of Dzogchen empowerments,
teachings, and conveyance of experiential insights with special
emphasis on Longchen Nyingthig. From former Drugpa Chogon, Drugchen
Thamche Kyenpa, and Yoge Rigzin Gyalpo Rinpoche received thorough
introduction to the very essence of Mahamudra and the Great
Perfection and Drugpa teachings with special emphasis on Doha .
From his root guru, Khunu Rinpoche Tenzin Gyaltsen - the lifeline
of all Buddhist traditions - Gyalpo Rinpoche received bare naked
unadulterated teachings on the core of Mahamudra and the Great
Perfection with special emphasis on tregchod and thogal. The
teachings of such profound masters were practiced from the
Preliminary to the stages of Arising and Completion, punctuated
with retreats and propitiation of deities which included three
Major retreats and Yidam Propitiations.
