We are meeting on Zoom or in person at 2100 Date Street in Honolulu. Parking is on the street or guest parking (limited). Call Greg at (808)2847955 to access guest parking or the building.

For this meeting we will be discussing Ultimate and Relative Bodhicitta Bodhicitta, "enlightened heart-mind", is integral to the Buddhist path. Come to learn the difference between the two types.

Khentrul Rinpoche wrote "The Power of Mind" for us to use as a handbook to help us with every day life.

The book is based on Atisha's 10th Century Buddhist text, the Seven Key Points of Mind Training.

  • Khentrul Lodro Thaye Rinpoche, the author of this book, has been teaching in Hawaii annually since 2005. In 2023, he spoke about this book and signed copies for us.

Our program will consist of introductory comments and group discussion of the book. Our experience will be supported by brief intermittent practices of guided meditation.

The book is readable and practical, as well as profound. It's a good basis for conversation leading to meaningful connections with others.

It is written for use as a daily guide to practice.

  • With this wisdom, we can explore the potential of our minds and share this wisdom that has been passed down from teacher to student for centuries.
  • Regardless of what is happening in our lives, Rinpoche reminds us that our path to freedom lies within our minds. The time to practice this is now.

The book is available from the publisher, Shambhala publications, and from Amazon in paperback, e-book, and audio book.

Make time for daily practice. Power of Mind offers material to contemplate and apply in daily life. So start reading now, not the night before our meeting❣️

The "Translators guide for how to read this book" is a brief key important to working with the book.
Rinpoche's introduction "Why Tame the Mind?" obviates any tips I might give.
Looking forward to meeting newcomers, to hearing your thoughts, experiences, questions, and impressions.
