SUMMARY:In-Depth Meditation Course for Experienced Practitioners: Year 2 Term 2 (February – April 2025) - Yeshin Norbu
DESCRIPTION:In-Depth Meditation Course for Experienced Practitioners: Year 2 Term 2 (February – April 2025)In a world that often dismisses its significance\, the mind remains mysteriously at the heart of what we call life. Founded by the brothers Vasubandhu and Asanga\, the Buddhist Yogācāra school focusses on the mind as ‘forerunner of all things’\, the creator of our experience\, and the storyteller that narrates our existence. Yogācāra’s analysis of how the mind constructs our reality\, can help us relieve the constraints of the ego\, habitual patterns and reactive emotions\, to experience greater ease\, possibility\, and freedom in every moment.\nIn the second year of the IDMT\, we will emphasize the lived experience of meditation\, both on and off the cushion. Guided by the Buddha’s third turning of the Wheel of Dharma\, we will begin by training in the successive stages of shamatha\, followed by a deeper journey into insight meditation. We will also explore how concepts can blind and alienate us by adding an imaginary layer to our interdependent world. Using spiritual developmental models such as the 37 Factors of Awakening and the 10 Perfections\, we will learn how to live more freely in daily life. We will also explore the role of narratives\, the philosophy of language\, and how to cultivate great compassion for all living beings to help heal our conflicted world.\nVenerable Losang Gendun has dedicated nearly four decades to practicing Buddhism and has served as a Bhikshu (Buddhist monk) in the Tibetan tradition for the past 18 years. Prior to his ordination\, he worked in diverse fields such as palliative care\, technology\, refugee organizations\, and commercial management. His extensive training includes ten years of studying Buddhist philosophy and practice in monasteries across France\, India\, Nepal\, and Myanmar. Additionally\, he spent over four years in retreat\, immersing himself in Tibetan sutra and tantra\, as well as the Burmese Theravada Forest Tradition. For the last 15 years\, Ven. Gendun has been a dedicated teacher\, sharing his knowledge of Buddhist philosophy\, psychology\, and meditation worldwide. He serves the aspirations of H.H. the Dalai Lama and Lama Zopa Rinpoche as part of the FPMT (Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition). Ven. Gendun is also a member of Mind & Life Europe\, a multidisciplinary laboratory that brings together researchers and contemplative practitioners to explore the nature of experience. Beyond his Buddhist affiliations\, Ven. Gendun serves as an interreligious canon at the Peace Cathedral in Tbilisi\, Georgia\, and feels at home at a Mevlavi Sufi dargah in Istanbul. In 2023\, he founded The Buddha Project\, which engages in long-term guidance for Buddhist meditators\, scientific research\, art projects\, and intercontemplative social engagement.\nThe Buddha Project\nThis meditation course is part of The Buddha Project led by Ven. Losang Gendun\, a branch of which is the Buddha Research Project\, an on-going collaboration between Buddhist contemplatives and scientific researchers from the universities of Nîmes and Lausanne\, and the Mind & Life organization (founded by neuroscientist Francesco Varela in collaboration with H.H. the Dalai Lama). It is aimed at investigating transformative processes in long-term meditators\, regarding such topics as mental health\, perception\, and self-transcendence. For the initial research it has been granted a European Varela Award.\nIntroduction of the IDMT training\nMeditation is essential for personal transformation and a crucial complement to Buddhist studies. This 4-year online course provides students with long term\, in-depth support in their meditative development. This weekly course will offer:\nAuthentic traditional instructions\, in contemporary language\, aimed at providing a comprehensive set of meditation tools for students to transform their knowledge of the Dharma into personal experience.\nTraditional and modern theories on supplementary topics such as models of healthy psychological and spiritual development\, ritual\, narrative\, ethics\, and social engagement.\nAn international community of meditators\, online and live.\nTo complement the IDMT course we will also offer:\nMeditation Retreats – week & weekend retreats on vipassana\, compassion\, and mahamudra\, offered both at the centers and online.\nYogi Bootcamp – an intensive\, guided\, 1-year meditation training with weekly personal interviews (call) for a small group of international students.\nPractice days guided by Ven. Gendun and experienced students of Ven. Gendun\nWeekly reflection sessions\, led by experienced students\nWeekends with the opportunity to receive Refuge / Lay Vows (Feb. 8-9)\, Aspiring Bodhisattva Vows (June 14-15) and Engaging Bodhisattva Vows (Nov. 8-9).\nFor more information about the content of the course\, download the course description (PDF) here.\nThis course is a collaboration between 5 FPMT Buddhist centers: Shantideva Center New York (US)\, Jamyang Buddhist Centre Leeds (UK)\, Institut Vajrayogini in Marzens (FR)\, Yeshin Norbu Stockholm (SW) and Maitreya Instituut (NL) and therefore the course will be attended by an international group of Buddhist practitioners.\nIf you’re enrolling later on in the course\, it is possible to request access to recordings of previous classes.\nPractical details\nThe In-Depth Meditation Training will run weekly on Saturdays and will consist of about 1-hour of guided meditation and 1\,5 hours of teachings.

SUMMARY:In-Depth Meditation Course for Experienced Practitioners: Year 2 Term 2 (February – April 2025) - Yeshin Norbu
DESCRIPTION:In-Depth Meditation Course for Experienced Practitioners: Year 2 Term 2 (February – April 2025)In a world that often dismisses its significance\, the mind remains mysteriously at the heart of what we call life. Founded by the brothers Vasubandhu and Asanga\, the Buddhist Yogācāra school focusses on the mind as ‘forerunner of all things’\, the creator of our experience\, and the storyteller that narrates our existence. Yogācāra’s analysis of how the mind constructs our reality\, can help us relieve the constraints of the ego\, habitual patterns and reactive emotions\, to experience greater ease\, possibility\, and freedom in every moment.\nIn the second year of the IDMT\, we will emphasize the lived experience of meditation\, both on and off the cushion. Guided by the Buddha’s third turning of the Wheel of Dharma\, we will begin by training in the successive stages of shamatha\, followed by a deeper journey into insight meditation. We will also explore how concepts can blind and alienate us by adding an imaginary layer to our interdependent world. Using spiritual developmental models such as the 37 Factors of Awakening and the 10 Perfections\, we will learn how to live more freely in daily life. We will also explore the role of narratives\, the philosophy of language\, and how to cultivate great compassion for all living beings to help heal our conflicted world.\nVenerable Losang Gendun has dedicated nearly four decades to practicing Buddhism and has served as a Bhikshu (Buddhist monk) in the Tibetan tradition for the past 18 years. Prior to his ordination\, he worked in diverse fields such as palliative care\, technology\, refugee organizations\, and commercial management. His extensive training includes ten years of studying Buddhist philosophy and practice in monasteries across France\, India\, Nepal\, and Myanmar. Additionally\, he spent over four years in retreat\, immersing himself in Tibetan sutra and tantra\, as well as the Burmese Theravada Forest Tradition. For the last 15 years\, Ven. Gendun has been a dedicated teacher\, sharing his knowledge of Buddhist philosophy\, psychology\, and meditation worldwide. He serves the aspirations of H.H. the Dalai Lama and Lama Zopa Rinpoche as part of the FPMT (Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition). Ven. Gendun is also a member of Mind & Life Europe\, a multidisciplinary laboratory that brings together researchers and contemplative practitioners to explore the nature of experience. Beyond his Buddhist affiliations\, Ven. Gendun serves as an interreligious canon at the Peace Cathedral in Tbilisi\, Georgia\, and feels at home at a Mevlavi Sufi dargah in Istanbul. In 2023\, he founded The Buddha Project\, which engages in long-term guidance for Buddhist meditators\, scientific research\, art projects\, and intercontemplative social engagement.\nThe Buddha Project\nThis meditation course is part of The Buddha Project led by Ven. Losang Gendun\, a branch of which is the Buddha Research Project\, an on-going collaboration between Buddhist contemplatives and scientific researchers from the universities of Nîmes and Lausanne\, and the Mind & Life organization (founded by neuroscientist Francesco Varela in collaboration with H.H. the Dalai Lama). It is aimed at investigating transformative processes in long-term meditators\, regarding such topics as mental health\, perception\, and self-transcendence. For the initial research it has been granted a European Varela Award.\nIntroduction of the IDMT training\nMeditation is essential for personal transformation and a crucial complement to Buddhist studies. This 4-year online course provides students with long term\, in-depth support in their meditative development. This weekly course will offer:\nAuthentic traditional instructions\, in contemporary language\, aimed at providing a comprehensive set of meditation tools for students to transform their knowledge of the Dharma into personal experience.\nTraditional and modern theories on supplementary topics such as models of healthy psychological and spiritual development\, ritual\, narrative\, ethics\, and social engagement.\nAn international community of meditators\, online and live.\nTo complement the IDMT course we will also offer:\nMeditation Retreats – week & weekend retreats on vipassana\, compassion\, and mahamudra\, offered both at the centers and online.\nYogi Bootcamp – an intensive\, guided\, 1-year meditation training with weekly personal interviews (call) for a small group of international students.\nPractice days guided by Ven. Gendun and experienced students of Ven. Gendun\nWeekly reflection sessions\, led by experienced students\nWeekends with the opportunity to receive Refuge / Lay Vows (Feb. 8-9)\, Aspiring Bodhisattva Vows (June 14-15) and Engaging Bodhisattva Vows (Nov. 8-9).\nFor more information about the content of the course\, download the course description (PDF) here.\nThis course is a collaboration between 5 FPMT Buddhist centers: Shantideva Center New York (US)\, Jamyang Buddhist Centre Leeds (UK)\, Institut Vajrayogini in Marzens (FR)\, Yeshin Norbu Stockholm (SW) and Maitreya Instituut (NL) and therefore the course will be attended by an international group of Buddhist practitioners.\nIf you’re enrolling later on in the course\, it is possible to request access to recordings of previous classes.\nPractical details\nThe In-Depth Meditation Training will run weekly on Saturdays and will consist of about 1-hour of guided meditation and 1\,5 hours of teachings. The course offers a great opportunity for Buddhist practitioners. In the first year many of the foundational topics will be introduced\, however a basic understanding of Mahayana Buddhism is a prerequisite to attend. It will be given in English\, with French translation\, online via Zoom. The recordings will be made available after the sessions.\nPractical information and how to register:\nCourse dates: 1 Feb – 12 April\nWeekday: Saturday\nTime: 15:30-18:00 European Central Timezone\nLanguage: English\nLocation: Online (zoom link will be sent after registration)\nDonation: drop in 250 SEK\, monthly 800 SEK\, term 2000 SEK\nLast day of registration: you can join any time\nYou register for the drop-in by purchasing a ticket here on the website\, see “Tickets” below.

SUMMARY:Atelier avec vénérable Thubten Chodron (VIA ZOOM)
DESCRIPTION:Atelier avec vénérable Thubten Chodron (VIA ZOOM)Du vendredi 04/04 à 19h au dimanche 6/04 à 18h (inclut la conférence du vendredi soir)\nLa colère est-elle destructrice ? Est-il bon de laisser éclater notre colère ? Que pouvons-nous faire lorsque nous sommes en colère ? Comment éviter la colère et cultiver la patience ? Comment accepter les critiques sans se mettre en colère ? Existe-t-il un antidote à la colère ?\nNe pas manifester ou exprimer de colère ne signifie pas ne pas en éprouver. En effet\, réprimer ou refouler la colère ne l’élimine pas\, cela ne fait que l’enfouir. Nous pouvons arborer un large sourire\, mais si\, dans notre cœur\, nous sommes en colère\, nous ne l’avons nullement résolue. Et ça\, ce n’est pas de la patience\, c’est de l’hypocrisie ! De surcroît\, garder en nous cette colère est douloureux et peut nous causer du tort.\nÊtre honnête avec nous-mêmes et prendre conscience que nous éprouvons de la colère est la première étape\, plutôt que de faire comme si elle n’existait pas. Reconnaître que nous sommes en colère est différent de l’exprimer verbalement et physiquement. Lorsque nous laissons la colère se manifester\, nous risquons de rendre les autres malheureux. De même\, nous défouler en frappant des oreillers ou nous isoler pour crier ne résout pas l’hostilité ou la frustration ; cela ne fait que dissiper temporairement l’énergie de la colère. De plus\, en faisant cela\, nous prenons l’habitude de crier ou de frapper des objets\, ce qui est contre-productif.\nLe bouddhisme propose des alternatives à ces extrêmes que sont la suppression de la colère ou son extériorisation. Il préconise de la dissiper\, afin qu’elle n’existe plus. Notre cœur sera alors libéré de toute hostilité et nos actions ne menaceront plus le bien-être des autres. L’esprit clair\, nous serons alors mieux en mesure de discuter avec les autres et de résoudre les situations difficiles.\nConférence :\nLes Etapes de la Voie à portée de nos mains en Occident.\nLe vendredi 04/04 de 19h à 21h\nVénérable Thubten Chödrön vient nous présenter la Bibliothèque de la Sagesse et de la Compassion élaborée avec Sa Sainteté le Dalaï Lama.\nComment ont-ils collaboré\, quelles passerelles ont-ils faites pour nous rendre le Lam Rim\, les Etapes de la Voie\, accessible aujourd’hui ?\nNB : cette conférence ne sera pas transmise via zoom mais accessible publiquement sur YouTube et Facebook\nA propos de l’intervenante :\nThubten Chodron\, née Cheryl Greene en 1950 à Los Angeles\, est une moniale et enseignante bouddhiste américaine dans la tradition tibétaine. Elle est devenue moniale en 1977 après avoir rencontré Lama Thubten Yeshe et a pris ses vœux monastiques en 1986. Elle est l’autrice de plusieurs ouvrages\, dont Buddhism for Beginners et Don’t Believe Everything You Think\, dans lesquels elle explique les enseignements bouddhistes de manière accessible.\nElle est également la fondatrice du monastère Sravasti Abbey dans l’État de Washington\, un centre bouddhiste pour femmes. Thubten Chodron enseigne la méditation\, la compassion\, et la sagesse bouddhistes\, et elle joue un rôle clé dans la diffusion du bouddhisme tibétain en Occident.

SUMMARY:His Holiness Long Life ~ Mani Mantra Recitation Initiative - Yeshin Norbu
DESCRIPTION:His Holiness Long Life ~ Mani Mantra Recitation InitiativeTrusting this finds you all very well.\nYou are warmly invited to join the FPMT community in this very special His Holiness Long Life ~ Mani Mantra Recitation Initiative\, where students are invited to recite the Om Mani Padme Hum mantra. The total of all the recitations will be offered to His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama on the 6th of July for his 90th birthday.\nThe motivation of this initiative is to offer these mantras for His Holiness long\, healthy and stable life\, for the fulfillment of all His projects\, for world peace/universal compassion and to fulfill Lama Zopa Rinpoche’s wishes by offering our practices to His Holiness.\nThis initiative will be launched for Losar\, which this year falls on the 28th of February\, so you can start tracking your recitations from the 1st of March.\nTo join\, it’s very easy\, just write your name and at the end of each month write your total monthly mantra recitations in this spreadsheet\, this spreadsheet can be accessed from computers only\, not phones.\nPlease write the total of mantras you recite each month. For example if you recite one mala per day in March\, (if your mala has 108 beads) that would in total be 108 x 31 = 3 348\, then write 3 348 in the March column beside your name\, if you continue with your recitations\, do similar for the following months. You can join one\, two\, three or all four months. Make sure that by the 30th of July you have written down the total of your mantra recitations. Whatever you can is of great value!!!!\nThank you so very much!!!\nYeshin Norbu Team

SUMMARY:In-Depth Meditation Course for Experienced Practitioners: Year 2 Term 2 (February – April 2025) - Yeshin Norbu
DESCRIPTION:In-Depth Meditation Course for Experienced Practitioners: Year 2 Term 2 (February – April 2025)In a world that often dismisses its significance\, the mind remains mysteriously at the heart of what we call life. Founded by the brothers Vasubandhu and Asanga\, the Buddhist Yogācāra school focusses on the mind as ‘forerunner of all things’\, the creator of our experience\, and the storyteller that narrates our existence. Yogācāra’s analysis of how the mind constructs our reality\, can help us relieve the constraints of the ego\, habitual patterns and reactive emotions\, to experience greater ease\, possibility\, and freedom in every moment.\nIn the second year of the IDMT\, we will emphasize the lived experience of meditation\, both on and off the cushion. Guided by the Buddha’s third turning of the Wheel of Dharma\, we will begin by training in the successive stages of shamatha\, followed by a deeper journey into insight meditation. We will also explore how concepts can blind and alienate us by adding an imaginary layer to our interdependent world. Using spiritual developmental models such as the 37 Factors of Awakening and the 10 Perfections\, we will learn how to live more freely in daily life. We will also explore the role of narratives\, the philosophy of language\, and how to cultivate great compassion for all living beings to help heal our conflicted world.\nVenerable Losang Gendun has dedicated nearly four decades to practicing Buddhism and has served as a Bhikshu (Buddhist monk) in the Tibetan tradition for the past 18 years. Prior to his ordination\, he worked in diverse fields such as palliative care\, technology\, refugee organizations\, and commercial management. His extensive training includes ten years of studying Buddhist philosophy and practice in monasteries across France\, India\, Nepal\, and Myanmar. Additionally\, he spent over four years in retreat\, immersing himself in Tibetan sutra and tantra\, as well as the Burmese Theravada Forest Tradition. For the last 15 years\, Ven. Gendun has been a dedicated teacher\, sharing his knowledge of Buddhist philosophy\, psychology\, and meditation worldwide. He serves the aspirations of H.H. the Dalai Lama and Lama Zopa Rinpoche as part of the FPMT (Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition). Ven. Gendun is also a member of Mind & Life Europe\, a multidisciplinary laboratory that brings together researchers and contemplative practitioners to explore the nature of experience. Beyond his Buddhist affiliations\, Ven. Gendun serves as an interreligious canon at the Peace Cathedral in Tbilisi\, Georgia\, and feels at home at a Mevlavi Sufi dargah in Istanbul. In 2023\, he founded The Buddha Project\, which engages in long-term guidance for Buddhist meditators\, scientific research\, art projects\, and intercontemplative social engagement.\nThe Buddha Project\nThis meditation course is part of The Buddha Project led by Ven. Losang Gendun\, a branch of which is the Buddha Research Project\, an on-going collaboration between Buddhist contemplatives and scientific researchers from the universities of Nîmes and Lausanne\, and the Mind & Life organization (founded by neuroscientist Francesco Varela in collaboration with H.H. the Dalai Lama). It is aimed at investigating transformative processes in long-term meditators\, regarding such topics as mental health\, perception\, and self-transcendence. For the initial research it has been granted a European Varela Award.\nIntroduction of the IDMT training\nMeditation is essential for personal transformation and a crucial complement to Buddhist studies. This 4-year online course provides students with long term\, in-depth support in their meditative development. This weekly course will offer:\nAuthentic traditional instructions\, in contemporary language\, aimed at providing a comprehensive set of meditation tools for students to transform their knowledge of the Dharma into personal experience.\nTraditional and modern theories on supplementary topics such as models of healthy psychological and spiritual development\, ritual\, narrative\, ethics\, and social engagement.\nAn international community of meditators\, online and live.\nTo complement the IDMT course we will also offer:\nMeditation Retreats – week & weekend retreats on vipassana\, compassion\, and mahamudra\, offered both at the centers and online.\nYogi Bootcamp – an intensive\, guided\, 1-year meditation training with weekly personal interviews (call) for a small group of international students.\nPractice days guided by Ven. Gendun and experienced students of Ven. Gendun\nWeekly reflection sessions\, led by experienced students\nWeekends with the opportunity to receive Refuge / Lay Vows (Feb. 8-9)\, Aspiring Bodhisattva Vows (June 14-15) and Engaging Bodhisattva Vows (Nov. 8-9).\nFor more information about the content of the course\, download the course description (PDF) here.\nThis course is a collaboration between 5 FPMT Buddhist centers: Shantideva Center New York (US)\, Jamyang Buddhist Centre Leeds (UK)\, Institut Vajrayogini in Marzens (FR)\, Yeshin Norbu Stockholm (SW) and Maitreya Instituut (NL) and therefore the course will be attended by an international group of Buddhist practitioners.\nIf you’re enrolling later on in the course\, it is possible to request access to recordings of previous classes.\nPractical details\nThe In-Depth Meditation Training will run weekly on Saturdays and will consist of about 1-hour of guided meditation and 1\,5 hours of teachings. The course offers a great opportunity for Buddhist practitioners. In the first year many of the foundational topics will be introduced\, however a basic understanding of Mahayana Buddhism is a prerequisite to attend. It will be given in English\, with French translation\, online via Zoom. The recordings will be made available after the sessions.\nPractical information and how to register:\nCourse dates: 1 Feb – 12 April\nWeekday: Saturday\nTime: 15:30-18:00 European Central Timezone\nLanguage: English\nLocation: Online (zoom link will be sent after registration)\nDonation: drop in 250 SEK\, monthly 800 SEK\, term 2000 SEK\nLast day of registration: you can join any time\nYou register for the drop-in by purchasing a ticket here on the website\, see “Tickets” below.
