Death, Bardo & Rebirth : Transcending Death intensive Course

PREREQUISITE FOR THIS COURSE : To have a better understanding, we recommend having completed or started the Deeper Lamrim Course. At the minimum, you should have already studied LAMRIM intro COURSE (& Calm-Abiding Meditation Course) or have already studied Buddhism since few years.

In person at the Centre or on Zoom

Schedule : 2 days (September 28-29)

4 sessions a day : 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM

Teacher : Tenzin Gawa (Jason Simard)

During these 2 days, we will explain the process of death, intermediate state (bardo) & rebirth

This teaching helps us to better understand the nature of samsara and how it is produced, and also gives us insight into the way to get freedom from samsara. Also, in the Buddhist Mantrayana teachings, the understanding of this process is necessary as we work on these 3 bases (death, bardo, birth) to purify them to attain Enlightnement. The sessions will include short periods of meditation.
