Querida Sangha,
Mientras anticipamos con esperanza la llegada de Rimpoché en el otoño, haremos una pausa en nuestras classes virtuales de los sábados en español. Las grabaciones de la serie completa de charlas sobre la mente amplia (mindfulness) están disponibles en nuestra pagina de web, junto con dos sesiones de la práctica de la Meditación en Calma.
Por lo pronto únete a nosotros seguiendo las enseñanzas en vivo del venerable Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche que se llevan a cabo regularmente de manera virtual a través de Padmasambhava.org, y suscríbete a nuestro boletín informativo para mantenerte informado tan pronto como reanudemos las prácticas y charlas en vivo en nuestro Centro local. Por el momento, continúa siguiendo las pautas locales sobre prácticas seguras de distanciamiento social.
Recitation of the Heart Sutra has been a part of our weekly practice at Palm Beach Dharma Center for many years, and it is a daily practice during retreats.
While we cannot practice together during this time, we can practice remotely, using this video of the Heart Sutra Practice.
We dedicate the merit of this practice for all sentient beings.

Are you feeling the need to do something spiritual and creative in these unusual times? Or have you done so many recitations of mantra over the last few months that you need to fix your mala that has broken? Or maybe you’re feeling so inspired by Venerable Khenpo Rinpoche’s teachings on bodhicitta that you’d like to make a mala to give to someone whom you think will benefit from it. If any of these situations describe you, then this mala-making workshop is made for you!
Join in and learn:
- How to make a full-length mala (108 beads)
- How to make a wrist mala
- How to repair a broken mala
We will gather together via Zoom so that you’ll be able to ask questions and get advice on problems that you’re encountering.
Please register in advance for this class, so we can prepare for the number of participants. People who register will be emailed the link to the Zoom meeting for the class.
To register either email us at info@pbdc.net or call 561-547-4711. Please register early so that you can receive preliminary instructions on what supplies you’ll need. Since you may have to order on-line and wait for them to arrive, the earlier you register and get the instructions, the more likely your supplies will get to you on time.

This series of talks given in the summer & fall of 2020 looks at our rich and diverse history from a different point of view. From the Buddha’s life, we focus on the well-developed Buddhism of India that was transplanted to Tibet, how these traditions flourished in Tibet through the centuries, and their re-emergence into the wider world in the last hundred years.
Please enjoy these recorded talks while we prepare for the next series!
Join us for our regular Heart Sutra Practice on Tuesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. via Vimeo. This teaching by the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara, the Buddha of Compassion, to the monk Shariputra is chanted by followers of Buddhism all over the world. The nature of this practice contains the wisdom that directly realizes phenomena as they are.
Please note that we use a slightly modified Heart Sutra practice to accommodate online practice. You can download a PDF of our modified practice here.

Pith Instructions for Dzogchen Meditation:
The Importance of Stabilizing Rigpa for Practitioners
July 24 – August 1, 2020
During the 2020 Summer Dzogchen Retreat webcast live from Padma Samye Ling, Ven. Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche will impart the heart essence of Dzogchen Pith Instructions according to the stainless wisdom lineage of the great master Mipham Rinpoche. These are direct pointing out instructions on how important it is to recognize the nature of rigpa, strengthen it, and then bring it to stability. Through this practice we will transform samsara and nirvana into the pure land of the dharmakaya.
* Mipham’s root text will be available to particiants as a free download.
Mipham Rinpoche (1846-1912) was a great Nyingma master and writer of the last century. Blessed by Manjushri, he became one of the greatest scholars of his time, and was a devoted student of Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche, Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo Rinpoche, and Patrul Rinpoche. Mipham Rinpoche had an enormous impact in re-awakening a deep reverence and interest in the Nyingma and Dzogchen teachings. Three hundred and twenty-two of his Dharma works have survived. Apart from these, he composed more than thirty-five books on a range of subjects including medicine; poetry (particularly the Gesar epics); logic; cosmology; astrology and divination; alchemy; painting and sculpture; engineering; and both extensive and pithy commentaries on the Sutras and Tantras of Buddha Shakyamuni and Guru Padmasambhava.
Ven. Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche brings these teachings to vivid life with practical, pithy advice that goes straight to the heart and inspires us all to use this precious opportunity for the great and lasting benefit of all beings.
Registration is Required for everyone to access this retreat.
Suggested Donations: All amounts of donations are graciously accepted. We humbly request everyone participating to help sustain Padma Samye Ling during these challenging times, and warmly welcome Patron Sponsors of this retreat to generously support PBC! Everyone will be able to join as long as they register.
