Lama Jigmé will be returning to Ireland for a weekend of teachings on Phowa, also described as transference of consciousness at the moment of death.

When:
Friday 26th April – 7.30 pm
Sat. 27th and Sun. 28th April – 10 am to 5 pm

Where: 
“Center” Feakle, County Clare (V94W2Y8), Ireland
 
Cost for weekend:
€120 (nonresidential, lunch included. Concessions available)

This is a very special opportunity to receive teachings on this unique practice. Lama Jigmé  is happy for people to receive this teaching regardless of how familiar or not they may be with the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. Initially he hesitated to teach such a profound  method  in the West but knowing how efficacious the practice is and seeing how some people may benefit from understanding something of the nature of the transitional consciousness at the moment of death, he has decided that it is timely to offer this instruction now.

Although to a complete newcomer some of the concepts and ways of seeing embodied in this practice may seem hard to grasp, there is no doubt that everyone will come away with a deeper understanding and for those who wish to build on this, there will be many opportunities in the future to do so.

Lama will teach in English with regular intervals to  summarise any difficult points and clarify any mispronunciations by him of the English terms.

A  light lunch will be provided. 

For those needing or wanting overnight accommodation nearby, the Clare Ecolodge (situated in Feakle village, less than 1 mile from Center) is offering us very reasonable rates for single, double & dormitory-style rooms. They will also provide an ample continental breakfast (again for a very good price).  We can really recommend it. Please contact Vicki for more info, or contact the Ecolodge  at  loughnaneshostel@gmail.com, quoting Rates for Vicki at Center. 

There are also various AIRBNB possibilities in the vicinity.

It is intended to restrict the numbers attending to 20 people. Those wishing to attend should register their intention by email please, as soon as possible.  Registration is secured on receipt of a deposit of €50 before April 15th.  (Methods for payment will be sent to you personally on receipt of your registration email).

There are possibilities that those who wish to attend but who are unable to pay the full amount may avail of a reduction.

Dear friends,

We are happy to announce the forthcoming weekend with Lama Jigme in Irland during which he will give an introduction to the practice of Phowa, also described as transference of consciousness at the moment of death. Phowa is an exceptionally strong and fast method whereby realization of stable meditation is not required. This makes it a very suitable method for everyone.

When:
Friday 13 April 2018 7.30 pm to 10 pm
Saturday 14 April and Sunday 15 April from 10 am to 5 pm

Where: ‘Center’ Feakle Co. Clare

Language: Teachings will be given in English.

For more information and registration please contact Vicki Wood via centerfeakle@gmail.com

Dear students and friends,

We would like to inform you that Lama Jigmé will travel to Ireland from 12 until 15 May 2017. He was requested to give teachings and lectures in the three beautiful locations there.

For more information about these events please see the event flyers:

• 12 May – a talk How to handle happiness and suffering – Finding peace in our ordinary life
• 13 and 14 May – a weekend course Buddhism as a science of mind
