KENSUR RINPOCHE TEACHES AT SRAVASTI

Gyume Khensur Rinpoche came to the abbey the last few days of August to teach the Paths & Grounds of the Bodhisattva. He was accompanied by his attendant Geshe Sonam Thupten and his translator Venerable Tsenla. These complex teachings challenged many students to think in a much larger perspective as Rinpoche taught on the abandonments and attainments of each of the 10 Bodhisattva bhumis. He also pointed out that studying and meditating on the Lam Rim is the foundation for the wisdom and realizations that are attained on these higher paths. In fact he said one continues to study the Lam Rim all the way to enlightenment. We were honored by his presence and Venerable Chodron requested him return soon and teach again

Early one evening Venerable Chodron and the students gave the visiting monastics a tour of the abbey grounds and building.
Venerable Tsenla translated the complex teachings by Rinpoche in her amazing and scholarly way.
