SUMMARY:Embodying Compassionate Presence: A Chenrezig Retreat with Rob Preece
DESCRIPTION:Embodying Compassionate Presence – A Chenrezig Retreat \n4-Day Online Retreat\nFriday April 14\, 2023-Monday April 17\, 2023\n7am-5pm PDT\nPlease plan to attend all days\, no partial retreat available \nSliding scale $200-$300\nScholarships available\, please email diamondlight.sac@gmail.com to request a scholarship.\nSpace is limited so register now: https://bookwhen.com/diamondlightsac/e/ev-s4yj-20230414000000 \nThis retreat will be open to anyone who has a background in the Tibetan tradition\, no specific empowerment is required to attend. \nThe practice of Chenrezig gives us the opportunity to receive and attune to a deep quality of compassionate presence. As we become increasingly familiar with this in ourselves\, we are then more able to offer this to others as an expression of Bodhichitta. Perhaps the most meaningful way we can be of benefit to another when they are suffering is to offer compassionate presence. This is a quality that can be totally present and open in a way that allows both ourselves and others to be as we are\, free of agendas and expectations. \nWhen we experience this\, it enables our suffering to begin to move through because it is held safely with compassion. We have all needed this at different times in our life. Can we be this for ourselves as well as for others? Chenrezig is the Buddha of compassionate presence. He enables us to begin to discover and embody that quality in a way that can inform all of our relationships including to ourselves. \nDuring this retreat the practice of Chenrezig will be combined with Mahamudra meditation and Kum Nye. \nThis retreat is for those who have some experience of Buddhist meditation. \nRob Preece\nRob has been a practicing Tibetan Buddhist since 1973. In 1980 he went to India and was in retreat for around five years exploring in depth the practice of tantra\, meditating under the guidance of his teachers Lama Thubten Yeshe\, Gen Jhampa Wangdu and Lama Zopa Rinpoche. Returning to the West\, in 1985 he began a Jungian based psychotherapy training\, gradually developing a synthesis of Jungian and Buddhist understanding. He worked as a psychotherapist for around 28 years and then began to focus upon spiritual mentoring. Since 1985 he has been leading meditation retreats\, following the influence of Lama Yeshe who particularly encouraged his integration of a more Western approach to tantric practice. He is an experienced Tangkha painter as well as the author of The Psychology of Buddhist Tantra; The Wisdom of Imperfection; and most recently Tasting the Essence of Tantra. Today he teaches retreats in the UK with his wife Anna and also in Europe and the US. \nInstructions\nLog in info and full schedule will be emailed out before the retreat.\nPlease plan to attend the entire 4-day retreat. As this retreat is online\, please do your best to create a retreat-like atmosphere in your home for the 4 days by minimizing distractions.

SUMMARY:The Healing Power of Resonance with Tenzin Chogkyi and Sunil Joseph
DESCRIPTION:The Healing Power of Resonance\nSunil Joseph and Tenzin Chogkyi\nApr 28\, 2023\n6:30 to 8:00 pm \nA Hybrid Event! Zoom Will Be Available.\nAt Diamond Light Meditation Center\n2791 24th Street Room 14 (upstairs\, ADA accessible)\nSacramento CA 95818\nparking available in the lot in back (off 4th Ave) \nSliding scale $15-$25\nScholarships available\, please email diamondlight.sac@gmail.com to request a scholarship.\nClick this link to register \nWe all know what it’s like when we “feel felt\,” when someone listens to us or shares our experience with perfect empathy\, and how healing it can be. Dr. Dan Siegal of the Mindsight Institute and founder of the field of Interpersonal Neurobiology calls this experience “resonance\,” and says it is dependent on the qualities of presence and attunement. \nJoin Sunil and Tenzin for a 90-minute session exploring the experience of resonance through discourse\, interactive exercises\, and discussion\, in order to tap into the potential and richness of this resource that we are all capable of expressing. \nSpecial Instructions for Attendees:\nAt the request of the teachers\, please wear masks during the class. \nAbout the Instructors:\nTenzin Chogkyi (she/her/hers) is a teacher of workshops and programs that bridge the worlds of Buddhist thought\, contemplative practice\, mental and emotional cultivation\, and the latest research in the field of positive psychology. Tenzin first became interested in meditation in the early 1970s and then started practicing Tibetan Buddhism in early 1991 during a year she spent studying in India and Nepal. She completed several long meditation retreats over a six-year period and took monastic ordination with His Holiness the Dalai Lama\, practicing as a monastic for nearly 20 years. Since 2006 she has been teaching in Buddhist centers around the world and taught in prisons for 15 years. \nTenzin Chogkyi is also a certified teacher of Compassion Cultivation Training and the Cultivating Emotional Balance program. Tenzin is especially interested in bringing the wisdom of Buddhism into modern culture and into alignment with modern cultural values such as racial and gender justice and environmental awareness. She feels strongly that a genuine and meaningful spiritual path includes not only personal transformation\, but social and cultural transformation as well. She loves interfaith collaboration and is a volunteer for the Interfaith Speakers Bureau of the Islamic Networks Group in the greater San Francisco Bay Area. She is featured on a monthly radio show called “Reflections on Buddhism” on KSQD 90.7 in the Santa Cruz area. She also finds time to create her Unlocking True Happiness podcast which you can check out at unlockingtruehappiness.org where you will also find her current teaching schedule. She is currently based on traditional Awaswas Ohlone land\, in what is now known as Santa Cruz\, CA. \nAbout Sunil Joseph: I am a certified GRIP facilitator teaching a restorative justice-based healing and accountability program in California’s prison system. In 2021\, I successfully completed the 2-year Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program offered by Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach to become a certified Mindfulness teacher. As a graduate from BayNVC’s 1-year NVC Leadership Program in 2008\, I have been teaching NVC to varied groups\, including those incarcerated at San Quentin prison. I feel grateful for the amazing teachers and teachings I have personally benefited from. I welcome opportunities to support others in their personal journey to fulfillment and wellbeing. I was born in India and now live in the San Francisco Bay Area. For more information about Sunil: https://myempathycoach.com/

Tenzin first became interested in meditation in the early 1970s and then started practicing Tibetan Buddhism in early 1991 during a year she spent studying in India and Nepal. She completed several long meditation retreats over a six-year period and took monastic ordination with His Holiness the Dalai Lama\, practicing as a monastic for nearly 20 years. Since 2006 she has been teaching in Buddhist centers around the world and taught in prisons for 15 years. \nTenzin Chogkyi is also a certified teacher of Compassion Cultivation Training and the Cultivating Emotional Balance program. Tenzin is especially interested in bringing the wisdom of Buddhism into modern culture and into alignment with modern cultural values such as racial and gender justice and environmental awareness. She feels strongly that a genuine and meaningful spiritual path includes not only personal transformation\, but social and cultural transformation as well. She loves interfaith collaboration and is a volunteer for the Interfaith Speakers Bureau of the Islamic Networks Group in the greater San Francisco Bay Area. She is featured on a monthly radio show called “Reflections on Buddhism” on KSQD 90.7 in the Santa Cruz area. She also finds time to create her Unlocking True Happiness podcast which you can check out at unlockingtruehappiness.org where you will also find her current teaching schedule. She is currently based on traditional Awaswas Ohlone land\, in what is now known as Santa Cruz\, CA. \nAbout Sunil Joseph: I am a certified GRIP facilitator teaching a restorative justice-based healing and accountability program in California’s prison system. In 2021\, I successfully completed the 2-year Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program offered by Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach to become a certified Mindfulness teacher. As a graduate from BayNVC’s 1-year NVC Leadership Program in 2008\, I have been teaching NVC to varied groups\, including those incarcerated at San Quentin prison. I feel grateful for the amazing teachers and teachings I have personally benefited from. I welcome opportunities to support others in their personal journey to fulfillment and wellbeing. I was born in India and now live in the San Francisco Bay Area. For more information about Sunil: https://myempathycoach.com/
