We will have four days with him and his excellent translator, Lama Ngawang. Previously, we have focused on the foundational practices. Now we will begin the next level deity yoga.
The Life of a Repkong Yogi
Lama Tharchin Rinpoche will recount stories from the life of his father, the great Repkong master Chimé Dorje Rinpoche, the head of the largest community of non-monastic practitioners in Amdo, Tibet.
This event is a fundraiser for Tsogyal Latso, the birthplace of Yeshe Tsogyal in Tibet. The evening will also include a slide show, a silent auction, and a live auction.

Kurukulle — Empowerment & Teachings
Among the most skillful means of Secret Mantra Vajrayana is the path of meditation known as deity yoga. As soon as you engage with deity yoga, your mind is in union with enlightenment as you begin to experience the enlightened nature of the universe and all beings.
Although the teachings on deity yoga are vast and sometimes complex, the beloved and illustrious 19thcentury master, Patrul Rinpoche, simplified them in a short text bearing the name Key Points for Meditation: Four Stakes that Secure the Life-Force of Deity Yoga. These precise instructions are believed to have been originally transmitted by Guru Rinpoche himself.
With his characteristic style that combines deep understanding with personal experience, Lama Tharchin Rinpoche will present these teachings as a basis for beginning a practice of deity yoga.

Kurukulle — Empowerment & Teachings
In Secret Mantra Vajrayana, the feminine deity or dakini is both the wisdom to be realized and the means for realizing it.
In the Dudjom Terma tradition, the wisdom dakini Kurukulle, is the inner aspect of Yeshe Tsogyal, the consort of Guru Padmasambhava.
Known as Rikjayma in Tibetan, her name means dakini that causes one to realize nondual awareness. From point of view of enlightened activity that benefits beings, Kurukulle is associated with magnetizing enchantment, which draws all beings towards enlightenment.
By receiving this empowerment and instructions from Lama Tharchin Rinpoche, even as beginners we are empowered to become Kurukulle in body, speech, and mind.

Advice from Lama Tharchin Rinpoche
This conceptual, dualistic mind, entirely creates the realms of the outer universe and the beings contained within ... is an eight-line verse written by Lama Tharchin Rinpoche in 2002 to remind his students of the pith instructions for carrying negative circumstantial phenomena onto the path.
