Chod Gyälthang – online only

Chöd Klausur according to the Gyälthang tradition. This precious lineage dates back to the 14th century and traces its lineage to Machig Labdrön and the highly realized Chöd Master Samten Öser. It is extremely rare to obtain, and this is the first time Lodrö Tulku Rinpoche has decided to offer it in an online course.

Chöd is a unique holistic training system within Tibetan Buddhism that simultaneously trains body, language and mind through meditation, visualization, sound and rhythm. Chöd means cutting off selfish, habitual thinking and behavior so that the natural openness, clarity, and sensitivity of our mind can manifest.

The great teachings of the Chöd go back directly to Buddha Shakyamuni and is therefore based on, the Buddhist philosopy, the Lam Rim / graded path to enlightenment, the Middle Way, Mahamudra or Dzogchen.

Lodrö Rinpoche gives explanations of the practice in the morning and in the afternoon, the participants learn / practice the drumming and the old melodies of the text visualization. In the evening, the group practices Chöd together with Rinpoche.

In Tibet, advanced Chöd practitioners were able to heal, and even fight epidemics, mental and physical illnesses.

In the meditation center Ganden Chökhor, under the direction of Venerable Lama Lodrö Rinpoche, a multi-year training course on different transmission lines of the Chöd (Wensa, Shiva Lamsab and Gyälthang and Tsogle Chöd) is offered.

Newly interested persons and beginners should please contact Lodrö Rinpoche at dharma@ganden.ch.
