Course with Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche

30th of August - 1st of September 2024

"Reduta" Sports Hall, Warsaw

The Jamgon lineage comes from the great Karma Kagyu scholar and meditation master Jamgon Kongtrul Lhodro Thaye, who lived in Eastern Tibet in nineteenth century. According to tradition, each Jamgon Kongtrul is a holder of all lineages of Tibetan Buddhism and influences many teachers and meditation masters. Fourth Jamgon Kongtrul was born in Nepal in 1995. He was recognized by XVII Karmapa Thaye Dordje and by Shamar Rinpoche in 1996. His education started when he was 5 years old with reading traditional Nyingma texts. Aged 14 he entered Sakya College in India and graduated with the excellent results later on. Until now, Jamgon Kongtrul was granted many important initiations in Kagyu, Sakya and Nyingma traditions by XVII Karmapa Thaye Dordje, Sakya Gongue Rinpoche and Beru Kyentse Rinpoche, respectively.

No religion is more important than human happiness

Buddha Shakyamuni

The main goal of Buddhist methods is to benefit others and oneself. If we act for the benefit of others, we are sure to enrich ourselves as well.

16th Karmapa Rangjung Rigpe Dorje

The more freedom from our emotions we have, the more rich and compassionate our mind is

Hannah Nydahl

We just have to remind ourselves that the source for any happiness is mind itself
