Teaching Series: The Heart is Noble
The Heart Is Noble is a series of teachings by Lama Tsultrim Yeshe based on a book by His Holiness the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje. The book is based on teachings given to American college students who went to India to study with the Karmapa. The book is 'about our experience of life. The shared ground we all meet on is our shared concern about our lives and our world.’ The chapters address various topics that can be problematic in today’s world: gender identities, consumerism, sustainable compassion and relationships.
This series of teachings will be given on the third Saturday of every month at the Minneapolis Shambhala Center from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. A meal at a local restaurant follows each teaching. Individual interviews are available after that.

Teaching by Lama Yeshe: White Tara, The Mantra Recitation
This is part of a continuing series of teaching on the practice of White Tara from Khenpo Karthar Rinpoche’s book The Wish Fulfilling Wheel. In this segment, Lama Yeshe will discuss the The Mantra recitation of White Tara. This is the beginning of the main practice in Khenpo Karthar Rinpoche’s book The Wishful-filling Wheel.
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.

White Tara Puja
Members and supporters of the Hay River KTC perform the group practice of White Tara. 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.

Karmapa The Sacred Prophecy
Tom Charland will begin a discussion on each of the Karmapas based on a book called Karmapa the Sacred Prophecy. his is a Zoom-only teaching. While visiting Karma Monastery in Nangchen, Eastern Tibet, the great nineteenth century master Chogyur Dechen Lingpa was granted a prophetic vision of twenty-one incarnations of Karmapa, the supreme head of the Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. Translated into English for the first time in this book, the prophecy of Chogyur Lingpa is cherished by the Kagyu lineage as a sacred document indicating the qualities and activities of the future Karmapas. Tom will display photographs of the nineteenth century woodblock text, as well as the silk painting by Karmai Khenchen that accompany the translation. It is the publisher’s hope that this volume will serve to inform readers new to Tibetan Buddhism, inspire established practitioners, and, perhaps most importantly, offer insight into our very real potential to develop the qualities of power, loving kindness, and wisdom which the Karmapa himself fully embodies.
