Event Series: Samye Summer Immersion 2025
Mahamudra Retreat
July 7 – July 11 EDT
Phakchok Rinpoche will present fresh insights from the Noble Wisdom at the Time of Death Sutra. This revered teaching of Buddha Shakyamuni explores the essence of Buddha nature and provides clear, practical instructions for authentic vipashyana (clear insight) meditation. Rinpoche will also give instruction in Tilopa’s Ganges Mahamudra Instruction, a seminal teaching in the Mahamudra tradition. Delivered poetically on the banks of the Ganges River, this text encapsulates Tilopa’s direct guidance to his disciple Naropa. It emphasizes the nature of mind as inherently pure and luminous, untainted by conceptual elaborations.
