Phuntsok Chö Ling, Tibetan Buddhist Centre in Rotterdam, organizes one week study retreat led by Lama Jigmé Namgyal.
It will take place in the beautiful woods of Oosterhout, Netherland. Lama Jigmé will give profound instructions on developing compassion. As long as we continue to focus primarily on our own desires and needs we can never find true happiness and conquer our negative emotions and disturbances. True happiness arises through benefiting others. That is why compassion is the source of true happiness for ourselves and others.

The topic of this year’s fall retreat is Wisdom and Devotion. With regards to wisdom, there are two levels of truth according to Buddhist teachings: relative and ultimate truth. How do we recognise and develop these?
How can their recognition be beneficial for our daily lives? Ultimate reality is obscured by conceptual thought and our dualistic mind. This gives rise to a relative and distorted perception of reality. With his unique sense of humour and ability to translate Buddhist teachings into a Western frame of thinking, Lama Jigmé will clarify this process and increase our understanding of the matter, enriching our practice. Focussing on others through devotion is also of great benefit for our lives. However, this is easier said than done. Throughout the teachings, Lama Jigmé will elaborate on the many benefits of generating devotion – both for ourselves and others – and he will explain the method of practicing this form of altruism.

Phuntsok Chö Ling, Tibetan Buddhist Centre in Rotterdam, organize une retraite d’une semaine conduite par Lama Jigmé.
Le thème de la retraite de ce printemps est : le sens de la Sagesse et du Dévouement. Pour ce qui concerne la Sagesse, il existe selon les enseignements bouddhistes 2 niveaux de vérité. La vérité conventionnelle et la vérité ultime. Comment les reconnaître et les développer ? Comment leur reconnaissance peut être bénéfique dans notre vie quotidienne ?
La réalité ultime est obscurcie par la pensée conceptuelle et notre esprit dualiste, entraînant une perception relative et déformée de la réalité. Avec son sens de l’humour unique et sa capacité à traduire les enseignements bouddhistes dans un cadre occidental de pensée, Lama Jigmé expliquera ce processus et augmentera notre compréhension du sujet enrichissant notre pratique. Prêter attention aux autres à travers le dévouement est aussi d’une grande utilité pour nos vies. Cependant, c’est plus facile à dire qu’à faire. Tout au long de son enseignement, Lama Jigmé se penchera sur les nombreux avantages du dévouement – à la fois pour nous-mêmes et les autres – et nous expliquera la méthode de la pratique de cette forme d’altruisme.
