3 Doors Weekend Retreat with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche and Other Programs

Lhundrup, the spontaneously perfected enlightened qualities and their effortless expression (by Tenzin Wangyal)This summer and fall, The 3 Doors is offering a number of programs open to everyone where participants will be guided to deepen their experience of inner refuge, explore what arises within the support of community, and more fully integrate meditation into daily life for the benefit of self and others.

Within each one of us is a heart of compassion, our natural response in the presence of suffering. But often we are overwhelmed, saddened or burdened by the suffering we perceive in the world around us, and we may shut down or turn away. If we acknowledge how the pain of others touches us and are supported to open in the presence of our pain, from the openness itself we touch the source within, a source of compassion, and can respond to others in a beneficial way. The upcoming 3 Doors courses listed below can help.

Beginning in August
Discovering Refuge Within: An Eight-Week Meditation Journey
This program will offer the opportunity to deepen one's experience of the foundational 3 Doors practices of stillness, silence, spaciousness and abiding in inner refuge with the fresh voice of a new 3 Doors teacher each term. Teachers from around the world will lead these programs in native languages. Both experienced practitioners and those new to meditation will find support in this course to integrate the benefits of meditation into everyday life.
