Sacred Transition: What to Do at the Time of Death w/ Khentrul Rinpoche

Name: Sacred Transition: What to Do at the Time of Death w/ Khentrul Rinpoche
Start: 2020-08-21
End: 2020-08-23
Location: Online

Dying is an essential part of life; something that we all will experience. Whether you or a loved one are facing death today or decades from now, it’s important to understand what it means to live and die well.

In this online weekend teaching, Khentrul Rinpoche will take us on a journey through what is known as the ‘bardos’, or transitionary periods, between one life and the next, and the tremendous opportunity they can offer if we view them as an opportunity for spiritual transformation.

Khentrul Rinpoche will help us understand the profound steps we can take in our life now to prepare for death and what we can do at the time of death. In this practical teaching, Khentrul Rinpoche will discuss the step by step instructions for what to do for our loved ones at the time of death, through their dying process and the subsequent prayers and practice we can do once our loved one has passed away. We do not have to be an incredible yogi to benefit from these teachings. Everyone can create conditions in this life, for their loved ones to have a peaceful death and a beneficial future rebirth.

Practical Teaching Includes:

How to prepare for death while living
What to do when you or a loved one is dying
What to do as someone dies
What to do immediately and in the year following their death
Receive a Death Blanket to put over someone’s dead body
How to spot opportunities for liberation in the Bardo
Kalachakra Phowa Teaching and Transmisison

There will be plenty of opportunity for questions, discussions and sharing throughout the day.

Languages

Rinpoche will be teaching in English. Our volunteer translators will work to make this course available in multiple languages directly following it’s completion.
