SUMMARY:Summer Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Mahamudra / Dzogchen Commitment Retreat\n\n\n\n (Schedule TBA) \n\n\n\nRural Retreat in a unique outdoor location in Loveland\, OH \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\nPlease join a gathering of the international sangha for an in-depth commitment retreat at a unique outdoor location in Loveland\, Ohio as Khenpo Samdup Rinpoche presents two classic texts from both the Mahamudra and Dzogchen traditions. • A Mahamudra Investigation into Confusion. This text captures the profound teachings Lord Jigten Sumgon offered Khenpo Zodpa about how confusion arises that leads to our Samsaric state and how we can overcome it. \n\n\n\n• Garab Dorje’s Striking the Vital Essence in Three Words. Garab Dorje is recognized as the first human teacher of the Ati Yoga Dzogchen or Great Perfection teachings. As he ascended into Parinirvana\, he offered a golden casket containing this precious teaching to Manjushrimitra. \n\n\n\nIMPORTANT!  This is a Commitment Retreat. Khenpo Samdup Rinpoche requests that those who attend commit to attending the entire retreat. This ensures you receive the maximum benefit from these precious\, rarely-bestowed\, high-level teachings. It is said that not fulfilling a commitment can create obstacles to receiving these teachings in the future.Teachings will be held under an open tent and at a simple meditation cabin. Walking on trails required to access the teachings.This retreat offers the International Sangha an opportunity to come together at a beautiful wooded location for a unique\, in-depth retreat experience. It is an inspirational\, rustic setting that features a waterfall. This has been the site of many Achi Smoke offerings and previous Dharma teachings\, including those by H.E. Garchen Rinpoche.Limited primitive camping sites and outdoor facilities will be available.This is a rustic retreat with outdoor camping in a rural setting.

SUMMARY:Buddha Amitabha Practice
DESCRIPTION:In this practice one visualizes Amitabha and his retinue and recites his six  syllable mantra. Through this practice we purify our obscurations and accumulate merit and wisdom while cultivating the causes for rebirth in Dewachen\, Amitabha’s pureland. This is a traditional practice associated with death and dying in many Mahayana and Vajrayana buddhist traditions. \nDuring this event we will offer prayers and the lighting of candles for beings who have recently deceased and for all beings.

SUMMARY:Ngondro Practice
DESCRIPTION:Ngondro means preliminary. This set of 3-5 practices is traditionally accomplished before one begins training in the more subtle practices of the Tantras\, Mahamudra\, or Dzogchen. While referred to as preliminary many masters have stated that Ngondro is a complete method by which one can attain enlightenment. \nOn Thursdays from 6-7:30 p.m. we will meet to discuss and practice the preliminaries (ngondro). All current ngondro practitioners\, regardless of the lineage you follow and version of the practice that you engage in are welcome. \nSessions will be divided into a period of discussion followed by a period of practice. Participants may practice whichever section of ngondro they are currently accumulating. Whether you are just starting your practice\, or anywhere in the midst of the process please join us for support\, encouragement and group practice. \nIf you would like to practice ngondro\, but have not received instruction\, please send an email: admin@gardrolmacourses.com to arrange a time for an individual introduction to and instructions for beginning the practice. \nThese practices are powerful and efficient methods for accumulating merit and purifying obscurations. Practically\, these trainings help develop positive\, virtuous qualities\, weaken and diminish obscurations and negative qualities\, and render the practitioner receptive to more subtle teachings.

SUMMARY:Buddha Amitabha Practice
DESCRIPTION:In this practice one visualizes Amitabha and his retinue and recites his six  syllable mantra. Through this practice we purify our obscurations and accumulate merit and wisdom while cultivating the causes for rebirth in Dewachen\, Amitabha’s pureland. This is a traditional practice associated with death and dying in many Mahayana and Vajrayana buddhist traditions. \nDuring this event we will offer prayers and the lighting of candles for beings who have recently deceased and for all beings.

SUMMARY:Buddha Amitabha Practice
DESCRIPTION:In this practice one visualizes Amitabha and his retinue and recites his six  syllable mantra. Through this practice we purify our obscurations and accumulate merit and wisdom while cultivating the causes for rebirth in Dewachen\, Amitabha’s pureland. This is a traditional practice associated with death and dying in many Mahayana and Vajrayana buddhist traditions. \nDuring this event we will offer prayers and the lighting of candles for beings who have recently deceased and for all beings.
