SUMMARY:Knowing Reality: Nagarjuna’s Fundamental Wisdom of the Middle Way
DESCRIPTION:May the Buddha’s teaching be upheld by countless masters\nWho realize the truth of dependent origination\,\nWhich comes from Nagarjuna\, chief among all philosophers\,\nWho is the single eye through which one can view\nThe truth of reality as taught by the Buddha. Tsongkhapa\, Ocean of Reasoning\nShantideva Center presents a special series on Nagarjuna’s Fundamental Wisdom of the Middle Way (Mūlamadhyamakakārikā). Scholars of Buddhism\, from Chandrakirti to Tsongkhapa up to the present day have marveled at the electrifying presentation of Madhyamaka philosophy in this foundational text\, composed by the Indian Buddhist master Nagarjuna around 150 CE. In its 27 chapters\, this masterwork takes as its subject the Buddha’s teachings on dependent origination\, and applies thorough analyses to an array of metaphysical topics in order to demonstrate the emptiness of inherent existence. \nGain clear understanding of the profound teachings on emptiness from two seasoned scholars\, Geshe Tenzin Namdak from Jamyang Buddhist Center and Professor Georges Dreyfus\, as they guide you through seven key chapters from Nagarjuna’s Fundamental Wisdom of the Middle Way. This is a rare remote opportunity to study a treasured volume in the wisdom lineage with qualified teachers. \nThe complete series includes 11 sessions spanning seven chapters–the same ones taught by His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Follow the entire trajectory\, or drop in at any point. The chapters studied include: \nChapter 26: The 12 Links of Dependent Origination (with Geshe Namdak – 6/20)\nChapter 18: Self and Entities (with Geshe Namdak – 7/18)\nChapter 22: The Tathagata (with Geshe Namdak – 9/19)\nChapters 1 & 15: Conditions & Essence (with Professor Dreyfus – 9/21\, 9/28\, 10/5)\nChapter 24: The Four Noble Truths (with Professor Dreyfus – 10/12\, 10/19\, 10/26)\nChapter 13: Compounded Phenomena (with Professor Dreyfus – 11/2\, 11/9)

SUMMARY:Faith and Impermanence with Yangsi Rinpoche
DESCRIPTION:Shantideva Center is delighted to host virtual teachings from Geshe Lharampa Yangsi Rinpoche from Maitripa College in Portland\, Oregon. In this series of four teachings\, Rinpoche delves into the topics of faith (Tib. dépa; its three kinds and many benefits) and impermanence. \nFaith invigorates and nourishes the entire spiritual path\, from the first thought that we can let go of our fixations and nurture our virtues all the way to enlightenment. Faith might aptly be depicted as a dry desert becoming rehabilitated and transformed into lush green land. Contemplating impermanence allows us to relax our usually rigid sense of self and be open to perceiving that we are mere guests hosted in the guesthouse of our five aggregates. Meditating on impermanence strengthens our ability to stay aware of the present and gently challenge the notion that we have endless time to fill with leisurely distractions. \nIn this series\, Rinpoche interweaves these topics to give us a rich sense of the invigorating and nourishing power of faith\, the clear-eyed wisdom of impermanence\, and the importance of both on the spiritual path.

SUMMARY:Meditations to Train the Mind in the Mahayana Path with Ven. George Churinoff
DESCRIPTION:The lamrim\, the gradual path to enlightenment\, is a textual tradition that presents the Buddhist teachings in a concise yet comprehensive manner. Lamrim meditations are essential for actualizing the various teachings after we have heard and reflected on them. Venerable George Churinoff\, a precious Dharma scholar and practitioner\, guides us through this profound sequence of meditations so we can gain a full understanding of the Buddha’s teachings\, nourish our minds\, and create the causes for contentment. This is an excellent opportunity for new students to understand the structure of the entire Buddhist path and for more experienced students to deepen their understanding and practice.

SUMMARY:Three ​Visions of Profound Reality​​ with Prof. Guy Newland
DESCRIPTION:When Buddha meditated on the causes of human suffering and dissatisfaction\, he found liberation by realizing what he called the Profound Reality. Professor Newland explains the distinctive power of Tsongkhapa’s articulation of this vision\, contrasting it with the approaches of other Tibetan masters such as Dölpopa Sherap Gyaltsen and Goram Sönam Senge.

SUMMARY:The Most Essential Teaching: The Four Noble Truths with Geshe Tashi Tsering
DESCRIPTION:“Whatever we study after the four noble truths will echo back to this most essential teaching\, and conversely this teaching will be revealed in everything else we study.”–Geshe Tashi Tsering \nShantideva Center is delighted to host Khen Rinpoche Geshe Tashi Tsering\, abbot of Sera Mey Monastic University\, to teach on the Buddha’s first and most essential teaching. The whole of Buddhist philosophy and the entire path to enlightenment can be found in the four noble truths: \n1. Life is characterized by suffering.\n2. The cause of suffering is ignorance.\n3. The cessation of suffering is attainable.\n4. There is a path to the cessation of suffering. \nThis spring\, contemplate these four noble truths with the skilled guidance of Geshe Tashi Tsering. In his characteristic warmth and clarity\, Geshe-la will offer a series of four online Saturday morning teachings on the Four Noble Truths Sutra (also known as “Setting in Motion the Wheel of the Dhamma”). By listening to teachings on this text\, we will become familiar with the three phases of engaging with these truths: knowing the nature of the truth\, knowing what needs to be done in connection with that truth\, and finally\, accomplishing what needs to be done. This foundational teaching is always relevant\, no matter where you are on your spiritual journey!
