New: ‘Transforming Your World Through Service’

We’re excited to announce a brand-new, six-month Internet course with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche that begins February 13, 2016. The topic is “Transforming Your World Through Service.”

Serving others is fundamental to our personal spiritual development. Our commitment to making a difference for others and the world can fill our life with love and joy, but it requires a strong foundation of wisdom and compassion. This free, six-month course will support you in becoming as effective as possible in your service to others. You will learn:

  • The fundamentals of enlightened leadership.
  • Meditation practices for cultivating wisdom and compassion.
  • How to rise above your ego to connect with a sense of collective purpose.
  • The best ways to inspire others to serve.

The free course will include everything from free monthly live webcasts (listed further below) to a discussion forum, recorded webcasts, MP3 audio recordings and downloadable print materials. Stay tuned for information on how to register for the first live webcast on February 13 and for the six-month course with its full support materials, offered through Ligmincha Learning.

Live Broadcasts from Serenity Ridge Retreats

Each year, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche teaches four seasonal retreats at Serenity Ridge Retreat Center, headquarters of Ligmincha International in central Virginia. (See dates and times below.) As he’s done in the past, Rinpoche plans to broadcast one teaching session from each of these retreats, giving everyone an opportunity to receive his instruction and engage in a guided meditation from the comfort of their home computers or other devices.
