On April 4th, we celebrate the anniversary of the parinirvana (muerte de un ser iluminado) of the Vidyadhara, Chogyam Trungpa Rimpoché, the founder of Shambhala and the teacher who first transmitted the Shambhala teachings on enlightened society to the west. On this date every year, we commemorate his life of teaching by practicing theSadhana de Mahamudra.

En 1968, after fleeing Tibet, Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche escribió el Sadhana de Mahamudra while in deep contemplation of how to bring Buddhism to the West. This profound sadhana invokes the wrathful manifestation of Padmasambhava (the father of Tibetan Buddhism) to help us overcome obstacles and confusion during this time.

Este año, we invite you to join the practice online via Zoom with OCEAN and the Halifax Shambhala Centre.
