GOMPA WISDOM TEACHINGS

We are delighted to have formed a partnership with fellow non profit Gompa – Tibetan Monastery Services, the online services site for the major monasteries and nunneries of India and Nepal, to create Gompa Wisdom Teachings.

Each year we work with Gompa – Tibetan Monastery Services to bring our Plus, All-Access, and In-Depth members three courses and/or teachings by eminent Rinpoches, scholars, and practitioners given in their monasteries and nunneries in India and Nepal. Our current Gompa Wisdom Teaching provides the rare opportunity to receive a four-day course of teachings from Choepa Karma Wangchuk Lhamo on ‘The Four Thoughts that Turn the Mind to the Dharma’. The four thoughts or four considerations are regarded as key subjects of contemplation in a practitioner’s quest to overcome attachment to the attractions of worldly life. When successfully undertaken the four thoughts lay a firm foundation for spiritual growth. These four are: 1) cultivation of an appreciation for the potentials and the opportunities of human existence; 2) reflection on death and the impermanence of all things; 3) reflection on karma and the law of cause and effect; and 4) reflection on the unsatisfactory nature of life in the cycle of existence and the nature and causes of suffering. The teaching is given in Tibetan with translation in English.

Previous Gompa Wisdom Teachings have included teachings from H. H. the 42nd Sakya Trizin, Ratna Vajra Rinpoche, H. H. the Drikung Kyabgon Thinley Lhundup, H. H. the Sakya Gongma Trichen Rinpoche, and other beloved and respected teachers.

Special discounted access to all of Gompa’s online services and member-supporter benefits including access to Gompa’s extensive library of teachings and courses by eminent Rinpoches and senior teachers is available to Plus, All-Access, and In-Depth members.

Gompa – Tibetan Monastery Services offers an easy way of participating with the teachings and special events at over seventy partner monasteries and nunneries in India and Nepal and to sponsor prayers and pujas for yourself and your loved ones at the partner monasteries and nunneries. Gompa – Tibetan Monastery Services was established in 2014 to provide online services for the monasteries and nunneries in India and Nepal and especially as a way to make it easy to ‘support the source’, ie to engage with and support the monasteries and nunneries, where the living classical educational system, the foundational legacy of all our learning, is maintained.
