“The Very Wholesome Questions Expressed with an Extraordinary Attitude

by Lama Tsongkhapa” and “The Melody of a Noble-Minded Proposal by Panchen Losang Chökyi Gyaltsen as an Answer to The Very Wholesome Questions Expressed with an Extraordinary Attitude by Lama Tsongkhapa” teaching by Lama Michel Rinpoche 

An important text in which some fundamental questions concerning Buddhist practice are addressed. Lama Tsongkhapa asks some questions about vision, conduct and meditation and Panchen Losang Chökyi Gyaltsen offers his answers.

Lama Michel Rinpoche’s teachings on this text will lead us into an important insight into Buddhist philosophy and practice.

Combined NgalSo Tantric Self-Healing practices, teaching by Lama Caroline

A synthesis of many of the NgalSo Tantric Self-Healing practices taught by Lama Gangchen over the years and collected together in a single meditative exercise, which he transmitted. The NgalSo practices are based on the use of various combined techniques: colour therapy, breathing therapy, mudras (sacred gestures), mantra recitation… as well as symbol and archetype visualisations.

The NgalSo Tantric Self-Healing – Combined Practice includes the NgalSo practices of purification of the elements and astrological energies, Black Manjusri, Eye-opening Chenresig, Parnashawari, and then, in sequence Self-Healing of the Five Supreme Healers, the Five Mothers of the Elements, Gujasamaja, Heruka, Vajrayogini, Yamantaka, Kalachakra and others. With a single exercise it is possible to go through many practices of the different tantra classes and receive the physical and mental benefits.

During this course Lama Caroline will particularly explore the NgalSo practices of Black Manjushri, Eye-opening Chenresig and Parnashawari.
