2009 Kansas City Retreats with Khachab Rinpoche

Finding Comfort and Ease in Meditation

Younge Khachab Rinpoche returns to Kansas City to teach the profound
methods of Dzogchen Semde (Mind Collection) from Longchenpa’s
“Finding Comfort and Ease in Meditation” (Samten Ngalso).

Longchenpa, also known as Longchen Rabjam, ‘Infinite, Vast Expanse of Space’, or
Drimé Özer (1308-1364), was one of the most brilliant teachers of the Nyingma lineage.
He systematized the Nyingma teachings in his ‘Seven Treasures’ and wrote extensively
on Dzogchen. He transmitted the Longchen Nyingtik cycle of teachings and practice
to Jikmé Lingpa, and it has since become one of the most widely practised of traditions.
