"To meditate on self-awareness, just be aware of your mind—without any opinions or beliefs. If you do that, your thoughts will naturally disappear. Just watch—be aware. Focus simply on what is there. If while meditating you recognize that you are following your thoughts, be aware of that. Let it go. If you don’t follow your thoughts, you’ll notice that your mind is calm and relaxed—then, be there. Don’t look for something special. Just be aware of everything as it is. By doing that again and again, you’ll be self-aware and discover your buddha nature—your inner peace. This is a very simple meditation, but I find it to be profound. And, if you’re lucky, you’ll discover your true nature of mind.” —Khenpo Sherab Sangpo

“All phenomenal experiences are not truly there—they are unreal. We need to bring this recognition of appearance-emptiness into our ongoing experience. Longchenpa teaches us how to rest at ease in illusion, in order to recognize unborn luminosity continually during the daytime and nighttime.” -Khenpo Sherab Sangpo
Khenpo Sherab Sangpo, a professor of Tibetan Buddhism in the Nyingma lineage (bodhicittasangha.org), taught a retreat on "Finding Rest in Illusion" by Longchenpa on March 16, 2024. He used the root text, "A Wish-Fulfilling Gem: Guidance on the Meaning of Being at Ease with Illusion, A Dzogchen Teaching,” in which Longchen Rabjam Drimé Özer shares oral instructions from his Dzogchen lineage that are the essential meaning of the Buddhist sūtras and tantras. This text explains how to meditate upon the eight similes of dream, illusion, hallucination, mirage, moon in water, echo, castles in the clouds, and apparition. Khenpo Sherab Sangpo focused his retreat teachings on explaining three stages of meditation instructions shared by Longchenpa: 1) the preliminary practice of guru yoga, 2) the main practice of recognizing mind and appearances as illusory, and 3) accomplishing meditative concentration (samādhi)—the ability to rest at ease without distraction in the ongoing experience of unborn luminosity (ösel). The retreat text and study resources for Longchenpa can be found on our website.

“A peaceful world just does not happen to us. We need to create it. We all have the root of compassion that desires others to be free from suffering—it just needs to be developed.” -Khenpo Sherab Sangpo Khenpo Sherab Sangpo, a professor of Tibetan Buddhism in the Nyingma Lineage (bodhicittasangha.org), offered teachings on his prayer for world peace that he composed in February 2024. He composed this prayer to quell the selfishness, wars, natural disasters, and diseases that are causing widespread suffering throughout our world and to bring a kind mind (bodhicitta), happiness, and well-being to every land. Based on Shakyamuni Buddha’s teachings on dependent origination, Khenpo Sherab Sangpo encourages his students see the interconnected nature of our world and to make a heartfelt commitment to take action to benefit all living beings—including human beings, animals, and the environment—to create a more peaceful world together.

Khenpo Sherab Sangpo, a professor of Tibetan Buddhism in the Nyingma Lineage, offered teachings on "Advice for a Dying Practitioner" by Dodrupchen Jigmé Tenpé Nyima (1865-1926), whose father was Dudjom Lingpa, a great Dzogchen yōgin. Dodrupchen Jigmé Tenpé Nyima received teachings from Patrül Rinpoché, Jamyang Khyentsé Wangpo, Mingyur Namkhé Dorjé, Dzogchen Khenpo Pema Vajra, Mipham Rinpoché, and Jamgön Kongtrul.
He wrote a concise commentary on the general meaning of the "Guhyagarbha Tantra” called “Key to the Precious Treasury” which is a profound guide to the teachings and practices of Mahāyoga.
The short text for this retreat consists of essential advice on how to prepare for death by cutting completely through attachment to this life, confessing all harmful actions, and joyfully dedicating one’s virtue and merit toward completing the path of the Mahāyāna at the moment of death (dharmakāya phowa) or in one’s next lifetime. The essence of this path is bodhicitta and the courageous bodhisattva vow to attain buddhahood to free all beings from temporary suffering (relative bodhicitta) and to establish them permanently in the ultimate joy of enlightenment (ultimate bodhicitta).
Khenpo Sherab Sangpo taught "Advice for a Dying Practitioner” line-by-line during the four sessions of this retreat, along with guided meditation sessions, to help his students reflect upon the meaning of their life and to prepare for their death.

"Be mindful of the mind itself on your journey of self-discovery.” -Khenpo Sherab Sangpo
In this retreat, Khenpo Sherab Sangpo, a professor of Tibetan Buddhism, instructs his students on the three supreme methods that are the foundation of all stages of meditation. In brief, the three supreme methods are practicing each meditation session first, with the proper preparation of the correct motivation of bodhicitta; second, practicing with the profound, non-conceptual view; and third, closing (or sealing) the practice by dedicating the merit to benefit all beings with great equanimity.
Khen Rinpoché then connects these three supreme methods to three fundamental stages of meditation. These are resting the mind, continuous resting, and repeated resting (or placement). By practicing these three stages of meditation combined with the three supreme methods, we develop a stable, disciplined mind with the profound qualities of realization (wisdom). This is how to practice bodhicitta (compassion) in union with wisdom.
