Description

 


During Pema Osel Ling's Summer Troma Retreat, June 11-20, 2017, Sangye Khandro, a senior disciple of Kyabje Dudjom Rinpoche and Dungse Thinley Norbu Rinpoche, and highly regarded translator of several texts and sadhanas on Dudjom Lingpa’s Chöd, will give teachings and lead students in Troma practice.


The retreat provides a thorough and practical grounding in the Troma Ngondro (preliminary) practices and familiarization with the chöd (or severance) practice of the Four Feasts as well as the concise and medium length Troma sadhanas.


The “Sole Mother” or Troma Nagmo, the Black Wrathful Dakini, is one of the most profound termas (treasures) revealed by Dudjom Lingpa. Chöd, or severance, is the practice that directly severs the root of suffering, self-fixation, with exceptionally expedient wisdom methods. It is well known that through the Troma Nagmo cycle of practice, thirteen of Dudjom Lingpa’s disciples attained the rainbow body, and it is predicted that many more will continue to do so for three generations to come.


New students who have an interest in the Troma Cycle are welcome and encouraged to attend the retreat.


The Vajrayana Foundation is a Tibetan Buddhist retreat and teaching center founded by Lama Tharchin Rinpoche. It is a Nyingma center in the Dudjom Tersar tradition. Also a non-profit organization it was created by Lama Tharchin Rinpoche to establish the Buddha Dharma in the West. The main retreat center for the Vajrayana Foundation is Pema Osel Ling (Lotus Land of Clear Light), located in Santa Cruz, California.


Please note: This item is not available to members of the Vajrayana Foundation or the Vajrayana Foundation Ngondro Program, or those who have attended a retreat at Pema Osel Ling since 2013.
