Khentrul Rinpoche’s root Guru, Lama Lobsang Trinlé an incredible Kalachakra master who taught the teachings of Shambhala, also did an Amitabha practice daily for his entire life. He said whoever had devotion to him and Amitabha would surely reach the Pureland. These two Purelands are both incredibly powerful spaces with different approaches to reach them. Khentrul Rinpoche will help us distinguish what they are, what are the benefits of reaching them, and what are the similarities and differences. This is a clarifying public talk to give a foundation for the 1 day teaching retreat on November 14th. During the retreat, Rinpoche will give commentary on 5 prayers to Amitabha and 3 prayers for Shambhala.
November 14th Retreat Information is available on Dzokden’s website.

A fully enlightened Buddha is beyond Karma. So how do we reach a state beyond karma through practices related to Karma? Why is the purification practices so important to our spiritual progress? Vajrasattva is the most commonly associated practice with this but there are numerous ways in which we are purifying karma. In this teaching, Rinpoche will cover why we do purification practices and their effect on Karma. Many offering practices such as sur, sang and Jinsek deal with purifying karma focusing on different aspects. He will be teaching about these three offering practices soon. In preparation, it is useful to understand the relationship between Karma and purification.
