Our Spiritual Lineage: NgalSo Ganden Nyengyu<\/h1>\n
\n

We belong to Ganden Nyengyu<\/strong><\/a>; the ear-whispered lineage from Ganden, founded by the great Lama Tsongkhapa in the fourteenth century.
\nNgalSo is the tradition founded by Lama Gangchen Rinpoche.\u00a0The name NgalSo represents all Buddha\u2019s teachings: Ngal<\/em> means suffering and the causes of suffering. So<\/em> means our potential to eliminate suffering and to develop our qualities.<\/p>\n

In the 1990s Lama Gangchen was inspired by the ancient Buddhist sanctuary Borobudur<\/strong><\/a> to reveal NgalSo Tantric Self-Healing<\/strong><\/a>: a traditional meditation practice suitable for modern people.\u00a0By developing our inner peace, we work towards a Peace Culture<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0<\/a> The Seven Limitless Meditations<\/strong><\/a> are the common aims of all spiritual traditions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Ganden Nyengyu<\/h2>\n

Lama Gangchen Rinpoche belongs to the Ganden Nyengyu Lineage \u2013 the ear-whispered lineage of Ganden \u2013 founded by the great Tibetan scholar, the fully enlightened yogi, Lama Tsongkhapa in the fourteenth century.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018Lineage\u2019 refers to the unbroken line of direct transmissions of knowledge and experiences from master to disciple. The teacher guides the disciple to realise the inner experience of the path and to awaken one\u2019s own inner guru; one\u2019s own inner wisdom, compassion and power. The main responsibility of a master in a lineage is to adapt Buddha\u2019s teachings to the capacity and mentality of people of that time, while still keeping its essence and meaning. That is how a lineage can keep the teachings alive.
\n<\/span>Lama Gangchen received his knowledge and experiences directly from his root guru, Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche and from the famous tantric master Kyabje Zong Rinpoche.<\/a>
\n<\/span>Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche in turn received his knowledge and experiences from his master, Pabonkha Rinpoche, in an uninterrupted transmission line that goes back to Lama Tsongkhapa, Atisha, Nagarjuna, Asanga and several other masters, reaching directly back to Shakyamuni Buddha.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

NgalSo Tantric Self-Healing<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n
\n

After years of experience in the West, dedicating his time to helping people find solutions to overcome and heal their physical and mental suffering, Lama Gangchen arrived at a synthesis of the Buddha\u2019s ancient teachings and transmitted the NgalSo Tantric Self-Healing method: a traditional meditation practice suitable for modern people. This method contains the very essence of all ancient philosophical, medical and astrological teachings \u201crepackaged\u201d in an accessible way so that modern people can benefit from its positive effects. Self-Healing helps to relax and to recover from the stress and problems of daily life in the 21st century. It emphasizes the interdependent relationship between body and mind and offers a method to overcome and transform our physical and mental blockages, our pain and pollution. It helps us to reconnect with our innermost, pure self-healing energy, which contributes to revitalize and restore our physical and mental health.<\/span><\/p>\n

Self-Healing helps us to diminish our mental defilements like anger, jealousy, arrogance, fear and ignorance. And it helps us to develop our qualities such as patience, humility, generosity, compassion, concentration and wisdom. It teaches us how to recognise and familiarise ourselves with the subtle energies of our body and mind, as a first step towards healing.
\n<\/span>When something goes wrong, our usual tendency is to point the finger at others or at outer circumstances. And when something is wrong with us, we do not like others to point it out to us. Therefore, we need a method by\u00a0which to recognize and to acknowledge our dilemma\u00a0and that helps us to develop self-responsibility and self-healing.<\/p>\n

The Self-Healing practice<\/strong><\/a> uses methods to touch our mind in a positive way: breathing, colour, sounds, mantra, mudra, visualisation and so on. When we first start the Self-Healing practice we may not be aware of our inner energy channels but even if we do not understand how it works, we can still experience the positive effects on our body and mind.\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

The word NgalSo summarises in its meaning The Four Noble Truths; the first teaching given by Shakyamuni Buddha after reaching enlightenment. NgalSo means \u2018relaxation\u2019 and can be divided into the two syllables, Ngal and So. Ngal contains the first two noble truths: the truth of suffering and its causes. So contains the last two noble truths: the truth of the cessation of suffering and the path leading to the cessation. NgalSo Tantric Self-Healing contains the essential meaning of all the teachings of Buddha: the NgalSo path to enlightenment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>
