SUMMARY:Fall Weekend Retreat - Awakening the Heart: Altrusitic Commitments of a Bodhisattva  With 1\,000 Hand Chenrezig Empowerment
DESCRIPTION:A Domo Geshe Rinpoche Event.\nRegister Here \nwith 1000 Armed Chenrezig \nAt the heart of Mahayana Buddhism is bodhichitta—the\nmind of enlightenment dedicated to the welfare of all\nbeings. To protect and strengthen this precious intention\,\npractitioners receive Bodhicitta commitments: 18 primary\nand 46 auxiliary vows that serve as supports for living with\nwisdom\, compassion\, and integrity. Even though these\nare far-reaching and might feel challenging to hold perfectly\, these ideals are practical\nsupports that will gradually help us align our thoughts\, words\, and actions with our\ndeepest aspiration to awaken for the benefit of all beings.\nDuring this weekend retreat\, we will explore the meaning of these vows\, reflect on their\nrelevance for our modern lives\, and discover how they strengthen practice\, guard the\nmind\, and open the heart to the boundless path of the Bodhisattva.

SUMMARY:Madison\, WI Teaching Visit
DESCRIPTION:A Domo Geshe Rinpoche Event. Fall Series: Madison Teaching Visit \nRegister Here  \nCommon Sense and Buddhism\nOct 3 rd \, Friday (7:00 – 8:30 pm)\nLocation TBD\nBuddhism is often seen as profound and mysterious—but at its heart\, it’s deeply\npractical. This teaching explores how the simple clarity of common sense can\nopen the door to Buddhist understanding. Together we’ll reflect on how everyday\nwisdom—knowing what truly helps and what doesn’t—aligns with the Buddha’s\nguidance for living a meaningful life. \nChanging Karma\, Cultivating our Life\nOctober 4 th \, Saturday (1:00 – 4:30)\nLocation TBD\nKarma is one of Buddhism’s most well-known teachings\, yet it is often\nmisunderstood. Is karma fixed\, or can it be changed? Through the lens of\ncommon sense\, this teaching will examine how karma actually works—not as\nfate or superstition\, but as the natural unfolding of cause and effect in our lives.\nDrawing on her book How to Change Your Karma\, Rinpoche will show how\nreasoning and everyday wisdom reveal karma’s flexibility: our present choices\nshape our future. Far from something to fear\, karma becomes a source of\nempowerment and hope\, offering practical tools for cultivating and transforming\nour life. \nHigher Reasoning\nOctober 5 th \, Sunday (10:00 – 11:45 am\, CT)\nLocation TBD\nBuddhism encourages us not just to believe\, but to inquire deeply. The Buddha\ninvited his students to question\, examine\, and see for themselves\, and this\nteaching will explore the practice of higher reasoning—a way of refining our\nthinking so we can look beyond assumptions\, cut through confusion\, and\nrecognize what is true. When guided by compassion and clarity\, reasoning\nbecomes more than logic—it becomes a tool for insight\, freedom\, and wise living.

SUMMARY:German Retreat on zoom- Spiritual Potential and Karma with White Tara empowerment
DESCRIPTION:A Domo Geshe Rinpoche Event. \nSaturday\,  June 7-14\, 2025 on Zoom \nSaturday\, 1pm  –Saturday\, 1pm   \n$350 online program\, $665 onsite at Lotus Lake Buddhist Center \nPreregistration required here. \n  \nKarma\, the universal law of cause and effect\, weaves through every aspect of our human experience\, shaping our lives in both seen and unseen ways. In this retreat\, Rinpoche will offer profound commentary on her book\, How to Change Your Karma\, inviting us to explore the vast\, unfolding nature of our spiritual potential—how it is not fixed\, but continuously shaped by our intentions\, actions\, and the karmic forces at play.  Rather than viewing karma as an unchangeable fate\, we are invited to see it as a living\, evolving force—one that responds to our awareness and choices. Through Dharma teachings\, group and individual meditation practice\, we will deepen our understanding of how we can consciously shift limiting patterns and open pathways toward greater wisdom\, compassion\, and inner freedom. \nThis retreat welcomes all seekers—whether stepping onto the Dharma path for the first time or returning to deepen an existing practice. \nParticipants will receive the sacred empowerment and practice of White Tara – a powerful meditation for cultivating long life\, wisdom\, and healing. \n

SUMMARY:"Overcoming Fear of Death" German Hospice talk
DESCRIPTION:A Domo Geshe Rinpoche Event \nTuesday\, May 27  1 pm-2:30 pm central time \nRinpoche will be teachings from the Lotus Lake Temple to the German hospice community on zoom. Teachings will be in English and translated into German. \nAmericans Register here.     (Germans register by Geman email system.) \nNo one escapes death. The Buddhist tradition attaches great importance to the actual experience of death and some practitioners prepare for it throughout their lives.\nMost of us hope for a peaceful death\, but this will be difficult if we feel fear.\nFear of death also prevents us from being truly present for others we care for at the end of life. Overcoming this helps us to better recognize the preciousness of life and make it more meaningful. We become more aware of our actions so that our relationship with ourselves and others can be more authentic. \n
