As The Way of the Great Perfection concludes teachings on refuge and turns towards bodhichitta, Rinpoche has kindly offered to teach on these two practices: refuge, the foundation of all paths to enlightenment; and bodhichitta, opening up to the heart of the enlightened mind. Rinpoche’s inimitable style of teaching, uncompromising integrity and sharp wisdom will surely enrich our understanding of these practices and we very much look forward to connecting with you for this exceptional event.

Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche has been teaching in Rigpa since 1997 and he is one of our dearest teachers and spiritual advisors. Rinpoche grew up in a monastic environment and studied and practiced with some of the greatest teachers of modern times including Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche and Nyoshul Khen Rinpoche. In 1989, he moved to the United States with his family to teach Buddhist philosophy at Naropa University. He has since founded the Mangala Shri Bhuti teaching organization and established a mountain retreat center in Colorado. He is a gifted author of several books, including Uncommon Happiness, Training in Tenderness and Peaceful Heart.
