Wisdom will only come through one’s own effort, and it will only happen naturally. Wisdom cannot be given to you by anyone else. Only through your own effort and practice will you realize wisdom. (more…)

A Special Opportunity for You in April!

Wednesday, April 4th, 2012
I’m so excited….this April, Zanze Pandit, the Head Teacher of Hanmi Buddhism and Chanzhi Dejian, one of three Designated Hanmi Buddhism Carriers (since Master Yu’s passing) have agreed to combine their knowledge and experience for the Akahsa Yoga class the weekend of April 14th & 15th and to energetically support me in teaching Treasure Vase April 28th. This is the first time they have taught together!  I can promise you that their combined energies will make a class with a depth of knowledge and power that will ensure far reaching and life changing affects.  DON’T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY!!
As you know, part of what makes Hanmi Buddhism so powerful and effective is that the teacher gives a transmission of energy while he or she is teaching the class.  This ensures that you receive the energy contained in the teachings on a cellular level and empowers your practice.  Obviously, the more powerful and knowledgeable the teacher(s) the more powerful and complete the transmission will be.  You will be receiving the energy and information from 3 Vajraacharias (ordained teachers) of the school, myself, Zanze Pandit, the Head Teacher for Hanmi Buddhism and  Chanzhi Dejian, Designated Hanmi Buddhism Carrier.
To find out more about what it means to be The Dharma Lineage Holder, click HERE.
Enlightened Master Dechan Jueren recommended that Akasha Yoga and Treasure Vase be taught together because of the profound effect they have on the practitioners body, mind, spirit and emotional levels; these two dharmas when practiced together best support the student in accessing the Chan or Zen state – the superhighway to enlightenment.

I hope you will join me for this powerful teaching.

For more info on the classes being offered this month and through the month of August please look below. 

 

Upcoming Classes

 April 14th-15th 10-3pm both days

Akasha Yoga

The Complete teaching, Level 1-3
in Sebastopol
 Includes a check in to fine tune your practice on April 29th**

For centuries, Buddhist monks have practiced Akasha Yoga to help them enter the Zen state, the superhighway to Enlightenment.  This movement practice connects the sixteen mudras of Akashagarbha Bodhisattva.  The gentle and flowing movements connect you to the Universal Wisdom found in the Akasha or all-pervading life force.  In a very short time, cultivators will bring together body and mind, movement and nature.  It’s an easy practice for all ages.  The self-spiritual light in the cultivator’s body will smoothly connect to the light of the heavenly bodies of the universe.  The practitioner may experience the earth’s gravitation and the heavenly bodies’ pull, letting her or his body experience significant changes.  The goal of doing this practice is not merely to have improved health, but to embark upon the path of wisdom.  Ultimately, it is about realizing wisdom in order to be one with all and every dharma and thus achieve the state of ENLIGHTENMENT.

You will learn:

* All 3 levels of the practice and receive an Abhis’eka – a pouring of holy oil upon the crown which empowers the practice

* How to combine the Mantra and Visualization with the moving Mudra of Akasha Yoga

* To use this practice to Enhance Health and Awareness

* A Gentle Flowing Movement that Connects You to Universal Wisdom – The Akashic Records

  * $300       

Dedicated practice will promote well-being on all levels, increase wealth and remove any obstacles to right thinking and action in one’s life.

Treasure Vase has a very profound effect on the energetic body and can bring forth an inner Qi-releasing movement in a very short period of time.  The energy brought forth in this manner can fight against aging and protect one’s life, allowing the practitioner to resist all kinds of illness and open up one’s wisdom eye.  This practice will also support the practitioner in being able to easily withstand every possible environmental condition, including extreme heat and cold. It can also assist you to live free from worry, defilement, and sufferings and to experience peace and fulfilled wishes.  For one who continues with this practice, a higher and deeper state of consciousness is achieved, creating unfathomable spiritual discovery and causing true wisdom to emerge.
