The Ngöndro is a series of what are known as “preliminary practices,” which form the base of practice in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. It helps practitioners clear away mental obstacles and build essential qualities like letting go of attachments, self-discipline, meditation, and wisdom. This foundation is crucial for moving on to more advanced Vajrayana teachings and practices. The Ngöndros are like a roadmap to enlightenment — it gives us step-by-step instructions on our journey to liberation.

Milarepa, famous in the ten directions for attaining enlightenment in a single lifetime and for his songs of realisation, is one of Tibet’s most beloved historical figures. His biography, which shows the intensity of his life’s processes, is a great teaching in itself. The extraordinary events in his life unfolded from suffering to black magic, from regret to harsh purification, from rigorous asceticism to the bliss of realisation. Having reached the pinnacle of the path, he instructs and inspires all beings he encounters with the poetic beauty of his vajra chants, through which he teaches all aspects of the Dharma.

LES TROIS MISES EN MOUVEMENT DE LA ROUE DU DHARMA, 3ème partie : L’ESPRIT LUMINEUX ET LES TROIS NATURES
Le vendredi 18 octobre de 20h30 à 22h, et les samedi 19 et dimanche 20 octobre de 10h à 12h et de 14h à 16hà Sakya Tsechen Ling, Kuttolsheim :
Les trois mises en mouvement de la roue du Dharma
Pour guider ses disciples vers la libération et l’éveil, le Bouddha a donné un large éventail d’enseignements adaptés à leurs besoins et capacités individuels. Ces enseignements ont ensuite été regroupés en trois classes d’enseignements appelés les trois mises en mouvement de la roue du Dharma, chaque mise en mouvement révélant une autre dimension essentielle du chemin. Durant les séminaires des trois années (2022-2024), nous abordons tour à tour chacune de ces classes d’enseignements.
2022 : Les trois tours de la roue du Dharma, 1ère partie : Se libérer du samsara
Dans la première mise en mouvement de la roue du Dharma, le sujet principal de l’enseignement du Bouddha porte sur les Quatre Nobles Vérités. Cet enseignement est le fondement de tout le système de pensée et de pratique bouddhique de toutes les traditions et lignées. Dans ce séminaire, la discussion de ce sujet a été soutenue par une lecture du Soutra de la mise en mouvement de la roue du Dharma et a exploré d’importants aspects connexes des enseignements de l’Abhidharma.
2023 : Les trois mises en mouvement de la roue du Dharma, 2ème partie :L’absence de caractéristiques
Le sujet spécifique de la seconde mise en mouvement de la roue du Dharma est la profonde sagesse de la vacuité. Cela a été longuement exposé dans les soutras de la perfection de la sagesse et plus tard commenté par de nombreux grands maîtres, notamment Ārya Nāgārjuna et les enseignants de l’école Madhyamaka.
Dans ce séminaire nous avons exploré la notion de réalité comme elle est enseignée dans les soutras de la perfection de la sagesse. Notre étude du “Soutra du Cœur” a été basée sur un commentaire du grand maître Sakya, Rongteun Sheja Kunrig, et accompagnée par une introduction à l’école de la Voie du Milieu (Madhyamaka).
2024 : Les trois mises en mouvement de la roue du Dharma, 3ème partie : L’esprit lumineux et les trois natures
Dans la troisième mise en mouvement de la roue du Dharma, le Bouddha a enseigné ce que l’on appelle la signification définitive de ses enseignements. Dans cette classe d’enseignements, le Bouddha a révélé des enseignements extraordinaires sur l’esprit, la nature de Bouddha et des moyens profonds de comprendre la réalité conventionnelle et ultime, complétant ainsi les enseignements antérieurs. L’exploration de ce sujet sera soutenue par des lectures du soutra sur la nature de Bouddha, du soutra de la descente à Lanka et du soutra dévoilant l’intention.

Chökhor Düchen is one of the four major Buddhist festivals of the year, during which the Wheel of Dharma, the gift of teaching, is celebrated.

THE ESSENCE OF NECTAR, BY JAMYANG KHYENTSE WANGPO
A text written for meditators by the great Lama Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo, perhaps the most eminent Master of the 1800s, in which the graduated stages of the path are presented. A nectar of Dharma extracted from the vast and profound teachings that indicates the crucial points of the path traversed by those who emphasise the approach of the practice. The ambrosia of great bliss can only be savoured by those who truly experience the nature of mind and without authentic guidance this is hardly possible. In this work, then, we find what we truly need to proceed safely towards the highest awakening.

SAGA DAWA DÜCHEN – PRAYERS FOR UNIVERSAL PEACE
Thursday 23 May from 20:00 to 24:00 at Sakya Tsechen Ling :
BOUDDHA SHAKYAMUNI – THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD
SAGA DAWA DÜCHEN is one of the four major Buddhist holidays. It celebrates the Enlightenment and Parinirvana of Shakyamuni Buddha. It is one of the most powerful days of the year and coming together to practice and recite the special prayers generates unlimited merits, which we will especially dedicate to universal peace and the benefit of all beings sensitive.
You are all invited to participate so that together we can make our indirect contribution to pacifying the difficulties facing the world. Depending on your availabillity, you may also participate in the evening only.
During his Enlightenment, at the age of thirty-five in Bodhgaya, the Buddha proclaimed:
“Profound peace, natural simplicity, incomparable luminosity, I found Dharma similar to nectar.”
When the Buddha lay dying in a grove in the forest at Kushinagara, surrounded by five hundred of his disciples, he said to them with his last breath:
“It is in the nature of all things that take form to dissolve again. Strive with all your being to achieve perfection.”

TENTH COMMEMORATION OF KHENCHEN SHERAB – THE PROFOUND GURUYOGA LAMA CHÖPA
This year, Sunday 14th April, marks the 10th anniversary of Khenchen Sherab (1931 – 2014), founding Master of our centres and highly realised being. Invoking his blessings on this special anniversary is extremely powerful and the benefits are sure to be experienced by all. There is no better method than Guruyoga to invoke spiritual blessings and the Lama Chöpa is the most appropriate and effective ritual for the most important celebrations.
Khenpo Tashi will give teachings on the profound Guruyoga Lama Chöpa, a ritual that will then be practised together on Sunday morning accompanied by many special offerings prepared for the occasion.
Who would like to participate in these offerings (e.g. flowers, fruits, incense, etc) can send a contribution HERE.
In your heart, a spacious sky of love, clouds of compassion fully gather, with the rain of activity falling down, you ripen the harvest of ones to be tamed. Khenchen Sherab Gyaltsen Amipa, at your feet I bow!

„NOTES ON RESTING IN THE NATURE OF MIND” by JAMYANG KHYENTSE WANGCHUK, PART 2 – STUDY AND PRACTICE
Jamyang Khyentse Wangchuk (1524 – 1568) was a disciple of Tsarchen Losal Gyatso (1502 – 1566), whose oral teachings on the source text of Mitrayogin he recorded in his “Notes”. Rather than simply commenting on the meaning of the twenty-five verses, these teachings provide a guide to actually putting their essential message into practice.
Mitrayogin’s deep wish was that beings could free themselves from suffering and relax their minds, which is possible through method and wisdom. It was with this motivation that he composed the twenty-five verses.
On Sunday afternoon, the day of Medicine Buddha, the ritual will be performed.
