The Karmic Warrior
Working ones path through life between the Peaceful and
Wrathful
Although
we may wish to be ultimately spiritual we have achieved a
precious human birth which is supported by the
interdependent phenomenon of cyclic existence. Just as a
parent would never abandon their own child, the path of the
secret Vajrayana and Guru Rinpoche in particular have
availed us the skillful means required to be able to
traverse the practical challenges of basic human life and
fulfill the ultimate meaning of our birth in this world. In
this workshop, Lama Rangbar will introduce the framework and
tools for working as a "Karmic Warrior" in this challenging
and often chaotic world of ours.

"The Union of Skillful Means and Wisdom"
By Special Request: A Teaching about Relationships
One of
the most central elements of our lives concern our closest
relationships. Our relationships can bring us to the
highest elation and bliss and can sometimes feel like
insurmountable challenges that seemingly leave us with
no avenues to move nor conclusions about their purpose.
By
Special Request, Lama Rangbar will address these issues from
a Tantric Buddhist point of view covering elements such as
the purpose and potential of these relations to enhance our
practice on the path and to bring us towards enlightenment.
