Please join Tibetan Buddhist teacher and meditation master Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche for an illuminating weekend as he reveals the keys to 'letting go' from the ancient wisdom teaching Parting from the Four Attachments.Universally recognized as one of the jewels of Tibetan Buddhism, these pith instructions embody the essence of the Mahayana path and serve as a guide to putting these teachings straight into practice.
When you don't have obsessions,
When you don't have hang-ups,
When you don't have inhibitions,
What more enlightenment do you want? - DJKR

Comment by Connie Moffit on June 2, 2011 at 10:40pm Folks, this one is not to be missed! Rinpoche is extremely articulate in English, funny, profoundly insightful, and able to translate these classic teachings into modern culture. He's also well known as the filmmaker of "The Cup" and "Travelers and Magicians," and one of the people who is most responsible for advancing the concept of Gross National Happiness (he's from Bhutan). The teaching is doubly precious because he rarely comes to Seattle, and rarely offers public teachings anywhere. If you have any interest in Buddhism, this is one to catch!
