Medicine Buddha Empowerment
Dear Friends,
Lama Norlha Rinpoche who is Abbot of Kagyu Thubten Choling will offer a Refuge Ceremony and a Medicine Buddha Teaching and Empowerment on Friday May 4, 2012 at 7:00 pm at Capitol Hill Presbyterian Church. The address is 201 4th Street, SE @ Independence Avenue. The metro is eastern Mkt.Blue/Orange Line. Kagyu DC maintains a dharma center on Capitol Hill under the guidance of Lama Norlha Rinpoche. There are meditation classes as well as regular meditation and chanting weekly. The Medicine Buddha empowerment is an empowerment for healing and the deepening of the experience of meditative awareness.
Welcome to our Live Meditation and Training Seminars via the Internet.
We both hope and wish that the wonderful qualities of the innate field of awareness can be experienced directly and immediately in your home…And why not? The same center is within you and within us. In the Argentinean author Jorge Luis Borges’ short story, “The Aleph”, a man discovers that the center of the universe is located in his own basement. This center point gives its beholder access to the oneness of the field. The Aleph point is the center, and all the centers are completely interconnected at the subtle level of the field of consciousness. Thus meetings can be direct, unmediated and consequently, inside to inside…self to self.

More about the archives
The archives are video streamed seminars and audio seminars that contain many hours of the meditation seminars as well as professional psychotherapy and healing seminars. The awareness field meditation seminars reflect awareness field meditation based on Dzogchen teachings and also at times elaborating the supporting views of Kashmir Shavism, early Gnostic Christianity, Western Phenomenology and Yan Xin Qi Gong. The healing and psychotherapy seminars focus on the awareness field as elaborated through Dzogchen teachings and western phenomenology. The special events seminar reflects Dzogchen Mahamudra retreats and interviews with healers and psychotherapist who work within the field of awareness. The special events audio section contains numerous psychotherapy training seminars on existential psychotherapy, gestalt psychotherapy, contemplative psychotherapy, psychoanalytic intersubjective experience, and Winicott’s transitional space and relatedness understanding. There are seminars on the phenomenology of awareness that integrate Dzogchen awareness teachings and western phenomenology into the context of relational psychotherapy.
We are very happy that many people who participate in the live online video streaming as well as those who access the archived seminars report experiencing the field of awareness and its wonderful qualities. All these archived seminars can be accessed for free.
