Meditation at Mayu

Dharma Wednesdays is an on-going community exploration of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras. Taken from different translations, one or two Sutras are presented each week, many addressing current events and others shedding light on navigating the spiritual path. Each class includes discussion, meditation or visualization, and connection with like-minded souls. No previous experience is necessary.

Topics include the 8 Limbed Path, Kriya Yoga, meditation methods, karma, ignorance, discernment and the promise that future suffering can be avoided. Please look for timely messages that announce that week's topic.

To attend, please click on the link under "Online Event" to receive a Zoom invite for the class.

Thank you for your interest and I look forward to meeting you.

This class meets every Thursday for 15-20 minutes at 12pm mountain time (that's 2pm eastern, 1pm central, 11am pacific) on zoom. You can join us one time, or every week - please register for each class and the zoom access code will be sent to you in an email.

These active, guided meditations help create inner space by clearing subtle or heavy energies that can keep you feel distracted or stuck. This is a wonderful practice if:
*your life feels stagnant
*you brace yourself mentally or emotionally for potential negativity
*you find it difficult to forgive, or to release the past
*you’re looking for more peace, generosity or joy in your life

​All levels welcome.

On a weekly basis, via Facebook Live, Lhoppön Rinpoche will give a talk on meditation and answer questions sent to him by students.
After his lecture, Rinpoche will lead us in silent meditation via Zoom.

1. If you would like to attend just the LECTURE on Facebook Live, then first click on "Attend Online". Once you are attending this event, you will see a link to the "online event" on the right side of this page. Please click on the link which will take you to Mipham Shedra's Facebook page. On that Facebook page, click on "Videos" in the Menu on the left hand side. After you open "Videos", on Sunday morning, you will see the "live" link. The lecture will last about an hour and a half.

2. If you would like to attend BOTH the LECTURE and the SILENT MEDITATION, kindly email your request to info@miphamshedra.org for the Zoom link. If you can send that request no later than one day ahead, much appreciated. You will then attend both the lecture AND the silent meditation via Zoom, total of approximately 2 hours.
   Rinpoche requested meditation participants to attend by Zoom so he can have more of a connection with you.

Lhoppon Rinpoche is a Tibetan Lama who grew up in northern India in a Tibetan Refugee settlement. At age five, he entered a Buddhist monastery and trained continuously through university level and beyond. He has been teaching Tibetan Buddhism and meditation in the USA since 2001. He has a wonderful sense of humor and welcomes people of all faiths and spiritual experiences. Rinpoche is a master at explaining Buddhism to the western mind. Sitting with him is a profound and unique opportunity to explore meditation at a level few get to experience. Rinpoche has a deep intellectual and spiritual understanding of the teachings he transmits and a remarkable ability to communicate these deep truths to his students through metaphors and stories that make complex secrets of the inner experience easily understandable.
