"The nature of mind is free, yet we are binding it every minute. That is the problem: we want it to be free, but we won’t let it be free." — Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche
The path of Mahamudra is a profound way of turning obstacles into opportunities. As Mahamudra practitioners, we begin to see that the antidote or solution to our obstacles is to be found within the obstacles themselves — nowhere else. This leads to a profound sense of openness and confidence in our capacity to remain unperturbed in the face of life’s challenges. In this event, Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche will share how obstacles in life and on the meditator’s journey can become opportunities to awaken and how the freedom we are looking for is already present within our own hearts and minds.
WHY SHOULD I ATTEND?
Are you interested in finding a long-term solution to obstacles in your life? Do you long to find freedom within your own heart and mind? If so, we welcome you to join us in this teaching by the revered lineage holder Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche.

- how Mahamudra is a profound way of finding freedom within
