Live Webcast Teaching with Khaydroup Zangmo on March 19th

 The SLO Bodhi Path center will host a live webcast teaching and discussion on Lojong (The Seven Points of Mind Training) with Dharma Teacher Khaydroup Zangmo.

Sunday, March 19th from 10:30 AM to 11:30 AM during our regular Sunday meeting at the center. If you cannot make it to the center and would like to participate, send an email to: sanluisobispo@bodhipath.org and we will send instructions for joining the webcast from your own computer or mobile device.

This week, Khaydroup will focus on the First Point of Mind Training (Lojong), “Learn the Preliminaries”, starting on page 41 of “The Path to Awakening” text.

“The first step toward awakening is taking refuge in the Three Jewels: the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha. Before even taking that first step […] however, you must learn the four thoughts that turn the mind towards enlightenment: precious human birth, impermanence, karma, and the defects of samsara.” – from The Path to Awakening

Webcast on the 37 Practices of a Bodhisattva, Jan. 22

Khaydroup Zangmo is teaching a series of live webcasts on The 37 Practices of a Bodhisattva to the New York City Bodhi Path Center. Khaydroup will be teaching another interactive webcast on Jan. 22 and has graciously invited members of the San Luis Obispo Bodhi Path community to participate.

“We are currently studying The 37 Practices of a Bodhisattva (by Gyalse Tokme Zangpo) and so far have covered the seven topics of preparation (verses 1-7), three types of practitioners (verses 8-10) and have begun to look at the application of Relative Bodhicitta using the practice of “Tong Len” or “Sending and Taking” to train a mind of loving kindness and compassion through meditation. Next the text, in verses 11-21, will present opportunities to train the mind through all types of difficult situations encountered in daily life. In this up coming session, we will look at this set of verses and what they mean to our own practice of developing Bodhicitta.”
