It is temporarily veiled by feelings of fear\, doubt and distrust. We can learn to accept our insecurity with affection and openness\, maintaining confidence in the good nature of our being to allow the warmth of our own humanity to be revealed. These are the keys to a path leading to a more compassionate presence in society. \nThe first step is to calm the mind\, followed by the introduction into the essential nature of the mind\, and the development of empathy and compassion for all beings. The open and clear acceptance to every moment of life\, enables us to be free of interpretations and judgments. These useful teachings and practices for modern life\, allow us to face with confidence and dignity the challenges that we may experience in the difficult times in which we live. \nFor Buddhists\, and practitioners who wish to take refuge: \nMONDAY\, September 26th of 19 to 21h. Tariff $ 300\nThe healing power of meditation\nInitiation of Vajrasattva\, the Buddha of purification \nInattention generates more confusion\, where we develop habits and inappropriate behaviors that bring pain and suffering. Meditative practice synchronizes the body and mind\, and establishes a healthy ground from which to take more ethical and compassionate decisions\, allowing us to manifest our inherent qualities. \nTUESDAY\, September 27th from 19 to 21h. Tariff $ 300\nTransforming negative emotions. Green Tara initiation\, Mother Liberator \nWe can consider the fear and the other disturbing emotions as the foundation to develop wisdom and courage.

SUMMARY:Learn to meditate – Shiné
DESCRIPTION:With Amrit Wagner \nThere is an ongoing practice for students of all levels\, newcomers and long time students alike\, at the Ripa International Center. The practice is led by Amrit Wagner\, an approved meditation instructor under the guidance of Dungsey Gyeterul Jigme Rinpoche. For more information on the weekly Shiné sittings\, please contact: info@ripa-international.com \nTHE IMPORTANCE OF MEDITATION: “The only way to know mind and to attain wisdom is through meditation. In repose\, in space\, in silent time\, answers can come. Wisdom and insight wash away problems. Transformation occurs in stillness. Through the practice of mindfulness\, the elementary harmony that creates wind horse – the Tibetan expression for positive energy – is created. Relaxation will then translate into everyday life and bring benefits. Internal change will bring external change. When we are clear and equipped with insight\, we are in a place to help others. It is by developing wisdom and compassion that we are able to be of the greatest assistance to others…. compassion heals.” – Gyetrul Jigme Rinpoche
