Welcome to what we offer. E mail me at any time with questions, Thank you, Jacqueline Roemer.
Manshrushri practice now available to everyone who would like to do it. Join us anytime. All Welcome to Wednesday Classes.
This Wednesday, March 21st, more Manshrushri Practice materials are available. The text will be further taught with a focus on how to “get through” the whole practice in one go. Every week, for several weeks, we will go through this practice, emphasizing different aspects of experience culminating in the Training necessary to arrive at a direct experience of our Buddha Nature; through Vajrayana skillful means techniques. Bodhichitta, how it is generated, maintained and it’s foundation role in all Practice is emphasized again and again. To accomplish this, we will again focus on Ringu Tulku’s on-going Buddhist Commentary of Shantideva’s Bodhicharyaavatara or more commonly known as The Way of the Bodhisattva. Available on Amazon.com. Padmakara translation.
All are invited to attend Wednesday weekly Class held by Bodhicharya Oklahoma; beginners, middlers, and Vajrayana (Mahamudra or Dzogchen) practitioners. You will not be intimidated or bored by this group. Conversion is not a goal. The goal is to present a variety of useful tools and teachings showing how these tools work so they can be enjoyed and help people grow as they choose.
You work as hard as you wish, or relax and learn. Every week is structured as a buddhist experience which means relaxed, focused and since it’s at the end of the day this is not more stress for you. If it is, we change that.
