KUNTUZANGPO ASPIRATION PRAYER
The Aspiration Prayer of Kuntuzangpo is a Dzogchen aspiration prayer, which gives meditation instructions about the ground, path and fruition. It explains the ground for beings going astray from their pure nature, and it explains the methods of liberation; how the defilements (kleshas, five negative emotions) are liberated into wisdom.
Her Eminence Khandro Rinpoche started this teaching in 2019, and we have requested her to continue teaching it in the coming years until it is completed. We will send the recording link of the teachings given in 2019 to all those who will participate this year, so that they can review or catch up on the teachings.

The purpose of this curriculum is to explain the essence of the Buddha's teachings in a simple and detailed way. This three-year course follows the Buddha’s teachings on the three wheels of the Dharma, and continues with the sacred transmission of the four tantras that correspond to the three gradual levels of recognition of the ultimate nature of mind and phenomena.
For each level, the teacher will explain the view (intellectual understanding), meditation (experiential understanding), and application (applying this understanding to change one's daily habits) of the topics according to Shravakayana, Mahayana, and Vajrayana. Through these three aspects: View, Meditation, and Action, one will discover the Buddha within oneself.
Full info of the study programme, different levels and what they include is found HERE
