"Through the virtues I have accumulated by preparing this book, may there be peace in the world, may every living being enjoy a meaningful life, and may holy Buddha Dharma flourish for evermore."
Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, The Oral Instructions of Mahamudra
In these classes, we are exploring and practicing the instructions presented in The Oral Instructions of Mahamudra, by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche, an extraordinary book that reveals the uncommon practice of Tantric Mahamudra of the Ganden Oral Lineage.
Starting with the practice of the preliminaries and then progressing along the actual meditation practices of Mahamudra, these classes help us to gain a clear understanding and experience of the steps we need to accomplish the profoundly blissful minds of Highest Yoga Tantra.
Each HYT practice class will engage in the prayers The Hundreds of Deities of the Joyful Land According to Highest Yoga Tantra and a guided meditation.
In conjunction with these classes, we are offering a monthly in-depth workshop to deepen our understanding and experience of Buddhist practice. These coordinated classes are designed to support the development of our HYT practice. Through these we will be guided step-by-step, gradually building up a qualified understanding of HYT practice.

We will also look at the vows and commitments of Highest Yoga Tantra and how to purify these if they have degenerated for us.
