Schedule
Practice Schedule Overview
The Hay River KTC has a regular practice schedule with Lama Tsultrim Yeshe, alternating between meditation, teachings and deity practices. These practices are held in person and many are offered via ZOOM. Please check the schedule below for details. All teachings are open to anyone who is interested by joining our mailing list so we can send you private links to our ZOOM meetings.
Our practice activities follow this general format:
Sunday Teachings at 10 a.m.:
In-person at Hay River and via Zoom
October 4: Teaching by Lama Yeshe, Buddha Nature. All sentient beings have the potential to become fully enlightened Buddhas. We need to know what this means so we can receive the most benefit from this potential.
October 11: Teaching by Lama Yeshe, Forgiveness. Having a healthy relationship with ourselves and others involves letting go of resentment, anger, even irritation. We start with forgiving ourselves and build on that to forgive others.
October 18: Teaching by senior student, Tom Charland: Current Science Meets Buddhist Teachings on Consciousness. This teaching looks at Buddhist and scientific notions regarding consciousness based on a new book by Michael Pollan. The concepts discussed can be easily applied to insight meditation.
October 25: Teaching by Lama Yeshe, The Bardos. This class is an introduction to bardo as an interval between two events. There are six bardos altogether: the bardo between birth and death, the bardo of meditation, the bardo of sleep and three between death and rebirth.
November 1: Teaching by Lama Yeshe, The Four Immeasurables. The Four Immeasurables are immeasurable love, compassion, joy, and equanimity. This talk will discuss them and the short prayer that contains them.
November 15: Teaching by Lama Yeshe, The Seven Branch Prayer. This prayer is more of a template used in many supplications. It has seven parts: homage, offerings, confessions of wrongdoing, rejoicing in the merit of others, requesting the buddhas to teach, requesting them to remain, and the dedication of merit. Lama Yeshe will explain it, its significance, and how it can be used as we travel the Buddhist path.
November 22: Teaching by by a senior student: Gratitude & Appreciation . Zoom only.
November 29: Teaching by Lama Yeshe, Distinguishing between what is important, not so important and trivial. It is important to be able to know the difference so you don’t waste time or miss opportunities.

Group Meditation with Instruction
The session begins with a brief instruction for those who wish to learn meditation for the first time or those looking for a refresher. A 40-minute meditation session follows.
The instruction covers the different types of sitting positions, posture, where to place your hands and how to breathe properly. We cover what typically happens when you bring attention to the breath and provide guidance on how to handle things like sleepiness or hyperactivity. We can also provide guidance on where to buy the right meditation cushions if needed.

White Tara Puja
Members and supporters of the Hay River KTC perform the group practice of White Tara, led by Lama Tenzing Ghale. We will be using the White Tara sadhana text written by Kunkhyen Tai Situ Tenpay Nyinje. This event will take place via Zoom and at the KTC Hay River Center.
Tara is a female Bodhisattva. Her Tibetan name, Jetsunma Pakma Drolma, means Exalted Female Liberator. She bestows health and long life and freedom from fear. She represents both an enlightened being and our own enlightened essence and potential.
Our precious guru Khenpo Karthar Rinpoche said that Tara is ultimately the nature of the dharmadhatu itself, with no single appearance and no single color, but because she is active in the realms and experiences of sentient beings, she is perceived in different ways. Twenty-one Taras are described in the Buddha’s original teachings; in the White Tara form, she is known as the Wish-Fulfilling Wheel.
