Rinpoche's Tour For 2010
8th February 2010
Unfortunately Rinpoche is unable to visit Adelaide this year mainly due to the fact that Easter falls very early and there simply isn't enough time for him to squeeze in any more teaching. He will however be giving a public talk in Melbourne, so for those of you who haven't had the wonderful opportunity to be with Rinpoche in person you might like to head to Melbourne for March 9th 2010.

There is also an extraordinary weekend of teachings in Sydney on the 13th and 14th of March 2010.
Rinpoche said again at the Myall Lakes retreat that he loves being in Australia and likes to stay as long as he possibly can. So given that Easter will be later next year we need to pray strongly that he will visit us next year. He did allude to the possibility that next year will be a bit more spacious for him and he would love to come to Adelaide.
End-of-Year Break
15th December 2009
There will be no courses or drop-in meditation from mid-December until the beginning of March (except for transmissions and Tsoks).
Monthly drop-in meditation practice sessions are held at the centre on the last Wednesday of the month from 6.00pm - 6.45pm, recommencing on Wednesday March 31st.
This session is for anybody who is interested in experiencing what meditation is like, and will include both practice and short teachings in the Rigpa tradition. The sessions are also open to all Rigpa students, from those in their very first year onwards.
The meditation will be very simple and this will be a lovely opportunity for us to practice together in the sacred environment of the centre shrine.
Everyone welcome!
