Geshe Tsulga Sundays 10 a.m. to 12 Noon July 1, 15, 22 & 29; August 26 September 2, 9, 23 & 30 The realizations that spiritual aspirants attain as they journey along the path to Buddhahood form the subject matter of the Or- nament of Clear Realizations. Although these insights are found in the Perfection of Wisdom sutras, since they are presented in a hidden manner, the Ornament was composed to clarify them.

Listening to Geshela will plant deep, powerful positive imprints on our mindstream so that either this life or in the future, we will be able to practice Yamantaka and even- tually gain all the realizations of the path to full Buddhahood for the benefit of all. This event is fully sponsored and therefore there is no requested donation. Khensur Jampa Tegchok Eight Verses of Thought Transformation Thought transformation refers to a radical method used in Mahayana Buddhism to turn our minds away from self-centeredness and toward altruism. Centuries ago, Geshe Langri Tangpa recorded a set of eight succinct verses that illustrate how to actualize this profound reorientation in the way we view ourselves and others. This small jewel of a text encompasses the two primary threads of Buddhist thought, compassion and wis- dom. We are honored to host contemporary Buddhist master Khensur Jampa Tegchok, who will bring these verses to life with his commentary. Born in 1930 in Tibet, Khensur Rinpoche Jampa Tegchok received his geshe degree from Sera-je Monastic University in India. In 1980 he began teaching in the West in England, France and the U.S. In 1993 His Holi- ness the Dalai Lama appointed him as abbot of Sera-je. He has recently retired from that post.

No requested donation. Although Buddhist doctrine is vast and profound, its lessons are easily accessible thanks to its lucid organization as a set of practice instructions found in the lamrim genre of texts. The Path to Bliss is one such presentation on how to use visualization, reflection and rational inquiry to deeply understand what the Buddha taught in order to benefit us. Geshe Tsulga continues his careful and detailed explanation of this text composed by the first Panchen Lama. Geshe Ngawang Tenley will fill in on July 22 & 29.

Guru Puja: a chanting meditation ceremony for strengthening our relationship to our teachers and im-printing the path to enlightenment on our mind.Tara Puja: connects us with Tara the Liberator, the fe-male Buddha of enlightened activity. Includes many recitations of the Twenty-one Praises to Tara.Medicine Buddha Puja: a powerful practice not only for healing but for success in our positive endeavors: it’s also of great benefit for the dying.Sakadawa: the fourth month of the Tibetan calendar is one of the most important months of the year for Tibetan Buddhists. It is named after the 28th constella-tion of the Tibetan astro system that is known as Saka, which appears on the night of the 15th of the month. That day, which is also the full-moon, is celebrated as the day that Buddha Shakyamuni took birth, achieved enlightenment and entered mahaparinirvana. It is be-lieved that whatever virtuous actions of body, speech and mind are done in this month, their results will be multiplied innumerable times. This year Sakadawa extends from May 17 to June 15.

Seven Point Mind TrainingFriday, April 13, 7–9 p.m.Saturday, April 14, 4–6 p.m.Kadampa Geshe Chekawa’s Seven-Point Mind Training is the main Tibetan source for the genre of teachings gener-ally known as “mind training.” Although all the Buddha’s teachings were meant for training the mind, the connota-tion of mind training is the development of bodhicitta, the determination to reach enlightenment for the sake of all sentient beings. Based on two famous lines from Nagar-juna’s Precious Garland, “May the negativity and suffering of others ripen on me and may all my virtue and happi-ness ripen on them,” these teachings give clear practical instruction in overcoming self-cherishing – the main hin-drance to enlightenment – and transforming problems into happiness. A free book of the root text with commentary, The Kindness of Others, is available at Kurukulla Center.
Praise to Shakyamuni BuddhaSunday, April 15, 10 a.m.–noon
This is one of the prayers we recite prior to every teaching at Kurukulla Center, but although we have so often recited the words, do we really understand their meaning? One of this prayer’s verses comes from the classic collection of Guru Shakyamuni Buddha’s sayings, the Dhammapada:
Do not commit any non-virtuous actions,Perform only virtuous actions,Subdue your mind thoroughly–This is the teaching of the Buddha.
This verse may also be found posted prominently in His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s temple in Dharamsala. It con-tains the entire path to enlightenment and Ven. Choden Rinpoche’s commentary will ensure that we do indeed un-derstand the meaning of the words so that in future our recitations of this prayer will be more powerful and bring more blessings.
Lamrim Prayer From Lama ChopaTuesday, April 17, 7–9 p.m.Wednesday, April 18, 7–9 p.m.Friday, April 20, 7–9 p.m.This extensive and powerful prayer is recited at Kurukulla at least twice a month during Lama Chopa (Guru Puja).Each time one recites a lamrim prayer the entire path to enlightenment is imprinted on the mindstream. This is why it is essential to recite lamrim prayers often. By receiving the commentary from Rinpoche, we will have a much better understanding of its meaning.
Brief Vajrayogini CommentarySaturday, April 21, 4–6:45 p.m.Lama Yeshe said, “Vajrayogini is the ultimate flowering of the female energy that lies within us all, a fully enlightened buddha, the essence of totality – beyond duality, beyond ego, fully controlled. Emphasizing wisdom, the yoga meth-od of Vajrayogini trains us to identify with her divine quali-ties and leads us on the quickest path to enlightenment.” Choden Rinpoche’s brief commentary is for Vajrayogini initiates only and will be based on the short sadhana that most practitioners recite every day. It is essential to register for this event. Please contact Debra at [email protected] and include where and when you received the Vajrayogini empowerment.
Namgyalma InitiationSunday, April 22, 10 a.m.–noon
Namgyalma is a goddess of long life. Like all Buddhist deities, she is a manifestation of the enlightened mind. She is able to bestow longevity on beings; not for selfish reasons, but for the purpose of helping all others towards enlightenment. The long mantra of Namgyalma is a prac-tice which is very powerful not only for granting long life but also for purification. We will also request Rinpoche to give the oral transmission of the Namgyalma puja, which is difficult to receive.

Dharma in Daily LifeSundays, 10 a.m. to 12 noonAugust 5, Wendy CookAugust 12, Priscilla SawaJoin us for this continuing series on how to apply the Buddhist teachings to life’s daily challenges. Using illustrations from their own lives, senior students speak about transforming one’s personal predicament into an opportunity for growth through Dharma practice.
The Buddhist view of the mind is relevant for all of us whether we consider ourselves religious or
not. Understanding how we are driven by mental impulses leads us to subdue the mind’s harmful tendencies. Seeing that we have the po-tential for everlasting happiness within us encourages us to develop our positive traits. To do this successfully requires investigation of our minds for it is only by seeing who we are that we can change. In this mini-series, Ven. Amy introduces how the Buddhist view of the mind differs from the scientific-materialistic view and presents reli-able methods for working with our minds. Requested donation: $12 per class; members $6.
All four classes $42/$21.
Friday, August 17 from 7 to 9 p.m.Saturday, August 18 from 1 to 5 p.m.Sunday, August 19 from 10 a.m. to 12 noon
Transforming Problems
All of our problems come from excessive attachment and the bruised ego. As long as we are dependent on external circum-stances going the way demanded by our attached ego, happi-ness is out of our control. In fact, Lama Yeshe refers to these self-centered tendencies as an inner thief stealing our happiness. The good news is that it is possible to transform this habitual tendency. In this 3-day course, Ven. Amy shows how we can use life’s difficulties to reduce our self-cherishing and increase our love and compassion. Ven Amy, ordained in 2000, has been teach-ing since 1992, was Director at Vajrapani for nine years and has done several long retreats.Requested donation for 2 hour class: $12 per class; members $6.
