Yetri Thasel: Chapter of explanations on the Base
Khenchen Tenpa Yungdrung Rinpoche
21 July – 9 August
We are happy to announce that Khenchen Tenpa Yungdrung Rinpoche has accepted to teach the chapter of the Explanations of the Base from the Dzogchen cycle Yetri Thasel during the traditional Shenten summer retreat.
The text is called པཤད་གཞིའི་མཚོང། which means in English something like “Chapter of explanations on the base”. It is a supplementary text to the YT and written by Drenpa Namkha. It is the main base from which Shardza Rinpoche wrote the Heart Essence of the Dharmakaya. It includes Semsdzin, Semstsol, Thekchod, Thogyal and mentions even (but not explains) Chülen.
