In Praise of Dependent Origination, Part 2 | Yangten Rinpoche
February 22 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
About this teaching
This February we welcome Yangten Rinpoche back to Jamyang, this time for an online teaching. Following on from his teachings given last year, Rinpoche will continue his explanation of Lama Tsongkhapa’s revered text, In Praise of Dependent Origination. The verses, written after Lama Tsongkhapa attained enlightenment, express unbounded reverence for the profound reasoning taught by the Buddha so that we may realise emptiness, the ultimate nature of reality, and thereby liberate ourselves and others from the suffering of cyclic existence.
There is no recording of last years’ teaching available unfortunately but don’t worry if you missed it, Rinpoche will most likely give a summary of what was covered last time. Students joining for the first time are very welcome.
Schedule
- Saturday, 22nd February: 10am – 12 midday
About the teacher
Born in the Kham region of Tibet, Yangten Rinpoche was recognised as the reincarnation of his predecessor at the age of 10. An alumnus of the illustrious Sera Monastery, he graduated with the highest possible degree of Lharampa Geshe before completing his studies at Gyuto Tantric College. Since 2008, at the personal behest of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Yangten Rinpoche has been working at the Office of His Holiness the Dalai Lama in various capacities. For the past few years Rinpoche has been offering teachings at Jamyang, including his teachings on Tsongkhapa’s Song of Experience, the Ten Innermost Jewels of the Kadam, as well as dialgoues with Science & Wisdom Live.

Donation
Jamyang operates on a generosity model. Please select the donation option that is most suitable for your situation.
Jamyang is a non-profit charitable organisation that relies on the kindness of our donors, including students and community members. The donations, or Dana, given when registering for events and teachings support the Centre’s operations, allowing us to deliver our activities. If you’re able to give a little more, that’s wonderful; if a little less, that’s fine too. These donations help with essentials like feeding residential volunteers, housing our monastics, and keeping our doors open. However, we wish to emphasise that the Dharma is always offered freely and no-one is ever excluded because of their financial status.
