Meditation retreat on the “Four Yogas of Mahāmudrā”
at Shambhala Mountain Center, Red Feather Lakes, Colorado
his retreat will focus on the four yogas of Mahāmudrā as explained in Karma Chagme Rinpoche’s Practical Instructions on the Union of Mahāmudrā and Atiyoga, for which the main body of his text has been translated under the titles A Spacious Path to Freedom and Naked Awareness. These four yogas constitute a complete path to achieving the perfect enlightenment of a buddha in one lifetime by providing practical methods for fully realizing the luminous and empty nature of consciousness itself, which is our own buddha-nature. Oral commentaries on these four yogas will be complemented with guided meditations on Śamatha, Vipaśyanā, and Mahāmudrā, also based of Karma Chagme Rinpoche’s classic text.
