We would like to invite you for the meditation course with a prominent Master from the lineage of Nyingma school, His Holiness Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche.
This event is a unique opportunity for you to meet this great Master and receive the teachings and a transmission from him, an event, which may not be held in the Czech Republic or even in the whole of Europe again.
Meditation course will take place 3rd – 6th September (!) 2009 in Prague, in a very nice conference center InGarden (Dvouetky st. 42, Prague 10 Strasnice, see map).
The Course will begin on 3.9. with registration (10.00-12.00). Initiations will take place every day appx. between 13.00-20.00 (will be specified during registration). Connected explanations etc. will be given by Rinpoche during the initiations, so there will not be any separate teachings beside the initiation session.
About the Master
H.H. Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche (1926-) is one of the few living lamas, who has received the traditional education and training in Tibet, and nowadays he is the Master of many tulkus such as of Dilgo Khyentse Yangsi Rinpoche (1993-), Düjom Yangsi Rinpoche (1990-) and of others.
He is often invited to teach and give transmissions in the most important Dharma Centers in India, Nepal and Bhutan. Many practitioners from various schools come to receive his transmission, since he is considered to be the Master of Rime, whose realization, wisdom and spiritual qualifications transcend the limitation of the diverse schools and their differences.
