Chenrezig Teaching Practice with Dawa (Santa Barbara)

Weekend Course
Sat & Sun, December 13 & 14 (Sat & Sun), 9am-1pm each day with an internal break

The Chenrezig practice entails the visualization of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, who is the embodiment of love, wisdom and compassion together with mantra recitation and meditation. By doing the practice, we train to generate these qualities within ourselves to ultimately guide our minds into the absolute state of Bodhichitta.

The meditation-recitation of four-armed Chenrezig sadhana was translated into English under Shamar Rinpoche’s guidance for Bodhi Path practitioners, along with accompanying commentary. The Practice Text, Extending Throughout Space for the Benefit of Beings, is by Tangtong Gyalpo, and the Commentary, Continual Rain for the Benefit of Beings, is by Khakyab Dorje, the 15th Karmapa. As Shamar Rinpoche advises, “Though it is quite accessible and easy to follow, this concise form of the Chenrezig meditation-recitation can ultimately lead to the same deep realization and results as far more elaborate Chenrezig practices.”

Please bring your own book. The book is available for purchase through the Bodhi Path website https://bodhipath.org/practice-study/practice/chenrezig-2/
