SUMMARY:Finding Joy No Matter What Occurs
DESCRIPTION:April 19\, 2025 10-12 noon 2-5:00 pmApril 20\, 2025 10-12 noon 2-5:00 pm \n\n\n\nIn this teaching\, the great mind training master Gyalsey Togmey points out that both happiness and suffering are merely perceptions of the mind. As such\, whatever conditions arise — be they positive\, negative\, neutral\, external\, or internal — ultimately our experience is determined by our mind. Please join us for a weekend of teachings with Khentrul Rinpoche in which he shares this extraordinary pith advice that gives us the power to determine how much joy or suffering we experience and provides us with the indispensable tools for working on our mind to transform our experience from within. \n\n\n\n\nCost: Suggested donation $80 Pre-registered or $100 at door \n\n\n\nTo Pre-register\, use this link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DJ2moumyPxtITj49Pk94viqTipfEFTwI/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=115999886004146583718&rtpof=true&sd=true \n\n\n\nVenue\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganizer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGreg Yuen \n\n\n\ngregyuen@cs.com

SUMMARY:The Heart Essence of Interdependent Origination
DESCRIPTION:Nagarjuna\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTime: 10am – 5pm each day\, lunch break 12-2\n\n\n\n\n\nInterdependence\, or dependent origination\, is the causal system behind all phenomena. It is the reason for everything – happiness\, suffering\, birth\, death\, and future experiences. By understanding how all phenomena arise interdependently\, we can cultivate the causes of happiness\, eliminate or reduce suffering\, and gain insights about the mechanism for consciousness’s experience during the dying process and beyond. \n\n\n\nIn seven four-line verses\, Nagarjuna illuminates the heart essence of dependent origination. While brief\, Nagarjuna’s insights into the mechanism of interdependence are extraordinary and complete. By hearing\, contemplating and practicing these teachings\, we learn how to carry suffering and fear onto the path. As the negativity in our mind and life subsides\, love and compassion effortlessly unfold\, and what to do at the time of death becomes clear. For those seeking to understand the essence of interdependent origination\, this teaching offers invaluable guidance. \n\n\n\n\n\nDue to this profound topic\, Rinpoche requests full live attendance for all sessions to participate in these teachings. \n\n\n\n\n\nAdmission is Free. Donations are welcome. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganizer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJulia Bevins \n\n\n\naustralia@katog.org \n\n\n\n0421022428

SUMMARY:Profound Insight Vipashyana Meditation Pith Advice
DESCRIPTION:Ju Mipham Rinpoche\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTime: 10am – 5pm each day\, lunch break 12-2\n\n\n\n\n\nOver the course of this weekend\, using a text by the revered master\, Ju Mipham Rinpoche\, Khentrul Lodrö T’hayé Rinpoche will teach on the profound advice for understanding the abiding nature of our mind through direct experience\, the key to the Mahamudra-Dzogchen approaches. \n\n\n\nJust as it is said\, ‘A hundred dharmas looking at it from a distance are nothing compared to the dharma of looking at it itself.’ Whether the mind is thinking or still\, it is never separate from its natural state\, buddha nature.

No will be turned away for lack of funds.GENERAL INFO:The teachings start promptly at 10am (morning) and 2pm (afternoon) on both days.As with most teachings\, it is recommended you bring a way to take notes.Seating will be in chairs—No cushions are allowed due to space limitations.Rinpoche strongly requests attendance for the full 2 days so that the teaching is understood clearly and fully.WHO CAN ATTEND:This teaching is open to anyone—whether they’ve had previous Buddhist teachings or not.

SUMMARY:The Mirror of the Essential Practice of Unifying the Two Accumulations
DESCRIPTION:Mipham Rinpoche\n\n\n\nLive Webcast Teaching\n\n\nThe Mirror of the Essential Practice of Unifying the Two Accumulations\n\n\n\nwithKhentrul Rinpoche\n\n\n\n\n\nKhentrul Rinpoche has long aspired to teach this pith instruction on unifying the practices of accumulating merit and wisdom. \n\n\n\nSome practitioners focus on the accumulation of non-referential wisdom\, such as Dzogchen\, Mahamudra\, or Madhyamika meditation\, treating other practices as less important. Others focus on the referential accumulation of merit through virtuous activities\, such as prostrations\, purifying obscurations\, visualizing deities\, reciting mantras\, and so on\, while not placing adequate emphasis on holding the ultimate wisdom view. However\, without a balanced approach\, progress is hindered. \n\n\n\nThis text offers essential guidance on authentically cultivating both merit and wisdom\, leading to a profound transformation in practice. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWeekend Teaching\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDatesTimes (each day)TimezoneFeb    22 – 2311:00 am – 1:00 pm and 2:30 pm – 4:30 pmCentral Time (CT)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDates\n\n\n\n\nFeb 22 – 23 \n\n\n\n\n\n\nTimes (each day)\n\n\n\n\n11:00 am – 1:00 pm and 2:30 pm – 4:30 pm \n\n\n\nCentral Time (CT) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOffering\n\n\n\nYou may offer whatever amount you wish for this webcast teaching when registering. \n\n\n\n\n\nDue to this profound topic\, Rinpoche requests full live attendance for all sessions to participate in these teachings.

SUMMARY:Nyingtik Yabzhi
DESCRIPTION:Nyingtik YabzhiEmpowerments and Transmissions\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKatog Choling Gön (Katog Rit’hröd)Retreat Center\n\n\n\nParthenon\, Arkansas\n\n\n\n\n\nNyingtik Yabzhi\n\n\n\nNov 8 – 12\, 2024\n\n\n\n\n\nNyingtik Tsapod\n\n\n\nNov 14 – 17\, 2024\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn the occasion of the consecration of the new temple and representations\, Khentrul Lodrö T’hayé Rinpoche offers this special event at the Katog Choling Gön retreat center in Parthenon\, Arkansas.You may attend just the Nyingtik Yabzhi or just the Nyingtik Tsapod or both\, but full attendance of either section is mandatory. The Nyingtik Yabzhi will be from the morning of the 8th to the evening of 12th. The 13th serves as a rest and travel day. The Nyingtik Tsapod will be from the morning of the 14th to the evening of the 17th. You must arrive the day before and depart the day after these dates for either both or one of the teachings.   \n\n\n\n\n\nExplanation of the transmissions\n\nAmong the numerous dharma teachings that came forth as mind terma treasures of the omniscient Longchen Rabjam\, the most profound cycles of the Dzogchen are the Two Mothers and Two Sons\, called the Nyingtik Yabzhi (the Four Heart Drop Essences). We will also receive a second set of transmissions called the Nyingtik Tsapod\, the compilation of all of the empowerments and reading transmissions of the mind terma treasures of Rigzin Jigme Lingpa. \n\n\n\nTypically\, it takes other lamas a month to give both of these complete transmissions\, but Loga Rinpoche has the special capacity to impart them in just two weeks. It is rare to be able to receive all of these empowerments in such a short period of time. \n\n\n\n\n\nHis Eminence Katog Choktrul Loga Rinpoche\n\nWe have invited His Eminence Katog Choktrul Loga Rinpoche\, one of the main abbots of the mother Nyingma monastery of Katog\, to give these empowerments and reading transmissions. Loga Rinpoche received these empowerments directly from Katog Khenchen Gyaltsen Ozer who was the single reservoir into whom flowed the Nyingtik lineage of transmissions of Jamyang Khyentse\, Jamgon Kongtrul\, Katog Siddhi\, Khenpo Ngaga\, and others. Thus\, Loga Rinpoche holds an exceptionally close lineage with immense power and many blessings. It is from him that we hope to receive these empowerments and reading transmissions. \n\n\n\n\n\nPrerequisites and commitments for students to attend\n\nThe primary prerequisite for attending this event is that the practitioner must have pure and unimpaired samaya with all of their root gurus. This means never having continued negative views of their gurus and never having rejected their guru with enmity. It is requested that anyone having such impaired samaya not attend. In addition\, practitioners who wish to attend must make a commitment to accumulate as many Seven Line Prayers\, Siddhi Mantras (Vajra Guru Mantras)\, Hundred Syllable Mantras\, and the shorter six-syllable mantra of Vajrasattva as possible [download here]. They must count their number of each mantra\, then offer the number to Katog Choling prior to the event. Before we begin\, we will gather these numbers together and offer our practice to the vajra master who is giving us the transmissions.  His Eminence Loga Rinpoche specifically requested these prerequisites when discussing requirements for such profound transmission. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is Khentrul Rinpoche’s aspiration that all students who are suitable recipients and who have the spiritual good fortune and capacity make their best effort to attend these rare\, once in a lifetime transmissions. \n\n\n\n\n\nPlease submit any questions about this event here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration is Closed\n\n\n\nThis event is full.

SUMMARY:Heart Sutra: Two-Weekend Webcast Teaching
DESCRIPTION:Buddha Shakyamuni\n\n\n\nLive Webcast Teaching – Two Weekends\n\n\nThe Heart Sutra\n\n\n\nwithKhentrul Rinpoche\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Heart Sutra is the Buddha’s quintessential teaching on wisdom. It elucidates the true nature of phenomena\, just as it is\, free of all elaborations. Studying this text leads us to profound insight (vipashyana)\, which is the view; practicing it is meditation; completely integrating it is conduct; and realizing it is the fruition. \n\n\n\nThis will be the most in-depth teaching Khentrul Lodrö T’haye Rinpoche has given on the Heart Sutra. While Rinpoche has previously taught on this topic\,  he will delve more extensively into its meaning over the course of two weekends. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTwo Weekends\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDatesTimes (each day)TimezoneJuly    27 – 28August  24 – 2511:00 am – 1:00 pm and 2:30 pm – 4:30 pmCentral Time (CT)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDates\n\n\n\n\nJuly    27 – 28 \n\n\n\nAugust  24 – 25 \n\n\n\n\n\n\nTimes (each day)\n\n\n\n\n11:00 am – 1:00 pm and 2:30 pm – 4:30 pm \n\n\n\nCentral Time (CT) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOffering\n\n\n\nYou may offer whatever amount you wish for this webcast teaching when registering. \n\n\n\n\n\nDue to this profound topic\, Rinpoche requests full live attendance for all sessions on both weekends to participate in these teachings.

SUMMARY:Practice for the Full Solar Eclipse
DESCRIPTION:Live Webcast\n\n\n\n\n\nFor many years\, Khentrul Rinpoche has had the aspiration to establish the practice of nyungnay (explanation) within our sangha. Until now\, this wish has not been fulfilled. \n\n\n\nOn the day of a full solar eclipse\, all positive and negative actions are greatly magnified and their power to effect is multiplied many times over. For this reason\, Rinpoche would like to use this special opportunity to give nyungnay fasting vows and establish a day of practice. \n\n\n\nRinpoche will give vows from the main temple at 6:00am Central Daylight Time at Katog Rit’hrod. Everyone is welcome to attend via webcast even though you may be in a different time zone. \n\n\n\nNyungnay \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFollowing the vows\, Rinpoche will give nyungnay teachings\, and then we will engage in the traditional nyungnay practice of Avalokiteshvara. The main practice will be to accumulate as much mantra throughout the day as possible and to engage in as many positive actions as we can. Rinpoche will provide further explanation during the teachings. \n\n\n\nIdeally\, the practitioner takes the nyungnay fasting vows and then focuses on practice all day. However\, if one must go to work\, as long as we keep the vows\, which include eating only one meal at noon\, then we are still welcome to participate. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNungnay in “My Courses”\n\n\n\n\nThis live webcast took place on April 8\, 2024 and has now passed.  However\, the recorded teaching and accompanying texts can be accessed by enrolling in the corresponding “My Courses” addition (free). \n\n\n\n\nEnroll\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nQuestions? Please email courses@katog.org.

SUMMARY:Songs of Spiritual Realization
DESCRIPTION:Called doha in Sanskrit\, these songs spontaneously burst forth from realized Buddhist masters of India and Tibet without any thought or deliberation over composition. They simply spill from the mouths of such masters as an expression of their realization. Such songs of wisdom contain profound messages about the nature of reality and typically arise in metered verse in a variety of melodies. Those who hear the words will understand the meaning according to their capacity\, and the songs will lead each listener to their own insights and wisdom. \n\n\n\nJoin us for an evening with Khentrul Lodrö T’hayé Rinpoche\, renowned monk and scholar\, and author of the recently published book\, The Power of Mind: A Tibetan Monk’s Guide to Finding Freedom in Every Challenge\, for a discussion on these songs of realization\, their history and importance. Rinpoche will explain one chosen song and sing it in its original language and melody. \n\n\n\n\n\nHosted by the Tibetan and Himalayan Studies Centre at Wolfson College\, Oxford University. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFree Admission \n\n\n\n\n\nVenue\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganizer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact: Ibby Caputo \n\n\n\nibby@katog.org

DESCRIPTION:Atisha Dipamkara Shrijñana\n\n\nLive Webcast Teaching\n\n\nThe Bodhisattva’s Garland of Jewels\n\n\n\nby Atisha Dipamkara Shrijñana\n\n\n\nKhentrul Rinpoche has chosen to teach on these profound instructions for the 2023 Annual Pandey Norbu Shedra. This text illuminates the path of how realized beings accomplish true and ultimately meaningful benefit for both themselves and others. It is a distillation of the direct experience of how such great masters of the past used their body\, speech\, and mind to tame their own mindstream and achieve the means to benefit others. Each verse is like a priceless garland of jewels\, which form an immense treasury of tools that are particularly relevant to the circumstances\, times\, thoughts\, and actions of the world today. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTwo Weekends\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDatesTimes (each day)TimezoneNovember    4 – 5November  11 – 12November  18 – 1911:00 am – 1:00 pm and 3:00 pm – 5:00 pmCentral Time (CT)\n\n\n\n\nDue to this profound topic\, Rinpoche requests full live attendance for all sessions on all days to participate in these teachings.

SUMMARY:A Song of Debate Between the Dream and Waking States - Live Webcast Teaching
DESCRIPTION:Mipham Rinpoche\n\n\n\nLive Webcast TeachingwithKhentrul Rinpoche\n\n\n\nThis teaching by Mipham Rinpoche generates a clear understanding of the profound wisdom that realizes what is authentically true\, the natural state. Whoever acquires these eyes of wisdom possesses the means for eliminating confused appearances and perceptions and the suffering they cause\, while compassion for others wells forth from within. \n\n\n\nMipham Rinpoche presents this in a way that is both highly effective and easy to comprehend. He does so by comparing the nighttime dream state with the daytime waking state in the form of a conversation between the two\, with each demonstrating their similarities. \n\n\n\nDue to this profound topic\, Rinpoche requests full live attendance for all sessions on both days to participate in these teachings. If you cannot reschedule something and must miss even one live session\, advance permission is required to participate in this weekend event.
