Dza Kilung Rinpoche - Public Talk on The Relaxed Mind Meditations

(via Zoom (via Zoom - link sent upon registration)

Tuesday, May 19th 6p-8p

        Shortly after arriving in the United States in the late 1990s, it became clear to Dza Kilung Rinpoche that his Western students responded to traditional meditation instructions differently from his students in Asia. The Westerners didn’t know how to relax and let go of tension—our pressured, fast-paced lifestyles carried over into meditation. This evening, Dza Kilung Rinpoche will offer teachings from his book, The Relaxed Mind, a seven-phase practice adapted from traditional instructions and intended to counteract the overwhelming distraction that has become a global culture these days. Beginners and experienced meditators alike are welcome.

The Relaxed Mind contains instructions for the seven-phase practice that he developed for students in the West. It is adapted from traditional instructions to counteract the overwhelming distraction that is becoming a global culture these days, not only in the West. Beginners will find a wealth of useful, easy-to-understand information while more experienced meditators may be surprised to find their practice deepening through letting go of tension.
