Gampopa Text Study/Translation "The Precious Garland"

A seven week online and in person (at KKC Vancouver) program on “A precious Garland of the Supreme Path” (continued from last year) by the 12th Century Kagyu Master Gampopa. We will continue to study Tibetan grammar and translate this Tibetan text into English (with back up support of two translations). The text is a collection of Gampopa’s 28 lists of advice for practitioners at every stage of their practice, and it is a brilliant condensation of the key points of all vehicles (Sutrayana, Mahayana, and Vajrayana). Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche says: "by personally applying these oral instructions, we can soften our rigid minds and further our experience and realization, gaining trust and sincere interest in the spiritual path."
