The Call of RetreatWhen Lightning Strikes: The Living Teachings of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche

A Six-Week Live Online Video Course Exploring the Great Siddha's Teachings

Begins Wednesday, February 15, 2012

 

While 2012 marks the 25th anniversary of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche’s death, in When Lightning Strikes Dr. Reggie Ray shows us that Trungpa’s dharma is as alive and accessible as ever.  Ray notes, “Trungpa himself had been struck by the lightning bolt of the awakened state. The space around him was electric, and he taught us many ways to experience the awakened state within our everyday lives, bringing that fresh explosion of life force right into each precious moment.”

Trungpa is considered by many to be the single most influential force in bringing Tibetan Buddhism to the West. Dr. Ray, who was with Trungpa Rinpoche from 1970 until his death in 1987, also remarked that, “Watching Rinpoche was like watching a star explode, rather than watching the life of a person; it seemed far more cosmic than human.”

By registering for this live online video course through Dharma Ocean's online store, your tuition will directly support our scholarship and archives programs, ensuring that Trungpa Rinpoche's lineage continues to awaken the boundless hearts of modern people all over the world.  Tuition for all six sessions is $79 USD.  Dharma Ocean members receive 15% off.  Click here for a detailed syllabus and to register.
