!Cancellation of events with Jigme Rinpoche

"If you are able to accept unexpected adverse circumstances as an aid in training the mind without focusing too much on them, it means that you have achieved mastery."
Jamgon Kongtrul

Dear friends, due to the fact that Jigme Rinpoche was diagnosed with pneumonia, we have to cancel the retreat and the instructor course in May.
Rinpoche's health is stable, but excludes any stress. And there are plans for another visit to Russia in September, during which a retreat and training of instructors will take place.

If possible, dedicate your practices to improving your well-being and speedy recovery to Jigme Rinpoche.

About the author
Jigme Rinpoche considers himself «a socially engaged Buddhist».
He is a representative of a new generation of Masters, attentive to the challenges of life, posed by the modern society. He has been coming to Russia since 2008. He is famous for the good knowledge of English, his lively, direct and practical style of explanation and a wonderful sense of humor.

His teachings are aimed at developing openness, heartiness and a clear perception of every moment of life; they are free from interpretations and judgments and overcome cultural barriers between East and West, ancient and modern lifestyle.

Ripa Awareness Meditation is based on the Buddhist approach of Shamatha-Vipassana. It is open to everybody who is searching for calmness and peace and would like to connect his mind and heart, who would like to learn living in balance and overcoming emotional disturbances, to develop good heart, loving kindness and compassion.
