Going Beyond Mindfulness: A Journey into Our Natural State of Mind

Join renowned meditation master Orgyen Chowang Rinpoche for a special talk exploring the pristine nature of the mind. Rinpoche will guide participants to explore how to distinguish between ordinary mind, with its thoughts, feelings and mental events, and Pristine Mind, a deep inner refuge that we can access at any time. Using simple language and based on teachings from his new book, Our Pristine Mind: A Practical Guide to Unconditional Happiness (Shambhala, 2016), Rinpoche will provide precise, experiential instructions drawn from the Dzogchen mind-class teachings that make this life-transforming realization attainable for all. These teachings are deeply relevant whether we are just seeking a happier life or are pursuing the spiritual journey all the way to enlightenment.

Suggested donation at the door is $15 – $35
