Guidance on the Profound Middle Way View by Mipham Rinpoche.
10:30am - 1:00pm
This brief but extraordinarily clear text by Mipham Rinpoche is a meditation-guide based on the tenets of the Middle Way ( Madhyamaka ) school. Thus it elucidates the stages in which insight into the true nature of reality is to be developed in meditation. It is the companion-text to Mipham Rinpoche's Wheel of Analytical Meditation but Lama Jampa will make it accessible to those who are not familiar with that work.
Initiation of Manjushri Lion Speech.
2:30 - 4:30pm
Manjushri is the principal wisdom-deity in Vajrayana and was the central focus of Mipham Rinpoche's own meditative practice. It is thus particularly appropriate to receive it in tandem with the morning's teaching.
