Intro to Tantra with Namchak Khen Rinpoche at the Garden 

Introduction to Tantrayana otherwise known as Mantrayana or the Vajrayana is the topic of this talk. It is the Resultant Vehicle, because the path is no longer based on establishing the cause, but identifying directly with the fruition (Buddhahood). Tantra begins with the view that the final attainment or result has been within the mind from the very beginning, but has been obscured by ignorance and obscurations. Both sutra and tantra share the same ultimate goal of enlightenment. The greatest difference between them lies in the methods employed. Khen Rinpoche will in addition discuss the meaning of the drubchod ‘great accomplishment” retreat

happening in June.
