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.
