On Friday 17th Rinpoche will begin his annual teachings at Dzogchen Beara in West Cork:

Meeting Challenges  :  Unshaken by life’s ups and downs

Friday 17, 8pm to Sunday 19 May, 1pm

On this weekend retreat, Rinpoche will teach on the topic of his most recent book, a commentary on “Turning Suffering and Happiness into Enlightenment” a text by the Third Dodrupchen Rinpoche, (1865-1926)  who was one of the most outstanding Tibetan masters of his time and the teacher of many great lamas, including Jamyang Khyentsé Chökyi Lodrö.   
When times are hard and we have challenges, how can we meet them in a good way; in a way that will not create further unnecessary suffering for ourselves or others? Since we all have our own challenges in life, this really is an extraordinarily useful teaching. But, similarly, how can we take the joyful times in our lives so they do not become a cause for problems (when they pass, as all things must, for example)? Learning these techniques will offer us a path towards true equanimity and peace.
