Thubten Lekshey Ling, the Nyingma Buddhist Meditation Center in Bangalore, is organizing an applied teaching by Khenchen Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche on how to use Buddhist meditation techniques for achieving lasting transformation of minds. This will be conducted on the 5th of September from 10:00am to 1:00pm at Ashirvad, St. Marks Road, Bangalore.
The core of any Buddhist teaching is about transformation of mind, the spoke person for the center said. Everything about our minds is changeable and trainable. Mind has to be freed from its self-imposed constraints and allowed to flourish into its natural perfection. Contemplations and meditations are taught to transform mind and attain this. Meditation is not merely intended towards peace during a sitting session. Through developing deeper understanding, meditation should help us in transforming life altogether. Khenchen Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche will be teaching about how to prepare for meditation with this goal and how to engage in meditation.
Khenchen Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche is a distinguished master of the Nyingma tradition of Buddhism, and one of the three superior abbots overseeing the education at Ngagyur Nyingma University of Namdroling Monastery in Bylakkuppe. Based on His Holiness Penor Rinpoche's advice, Khen Rinpoche travels extensive around the world delivering teachings and guiding disciples. He received recognition from His Holiness Dalai Lama for his Buddhist scholarship during his studies at the Central University of Higher Tibetan Studies, Saranath. He received all major lineage transmissions of the Nyingma tradition from HH Dudjom Rinpoche, HH Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche and HH Penor Rinpoche. He is affectionately known among his disciples as "Khenpo Guru".
