Introduction to Dying with Confidence - Maine 2023
with Anyen Rinpoche and Allison Choying Zangmo

September 30 and October 1, 2023
10am to 4pm
Brunswick, Maine - Curtis Memorial Library
(This program will be offered in person only)

After teaching the three-level "Dying with Confidence" program for many years, Anyen Rinpoche and Allison Choying Zangmo felt that a more formal introductory program was indispensable. Students who apply to the training program benefit more from first receiving teachings on the practice of sadhana and the Vajrayana approach to death generally before engaging in the practices of Avalokiteshvara and Phowa that are essential to the training program.

Attending an introductory program also gives the student a chance to formally meet and properly get to know Rinpoche and Allison before deciding to make a commitment to the full training program. Anyen Rinpoche follows the most traditional way of guiding students. He wants to get to know you, your background, and your experience with the Dharma. Introductory programs are always unique, engaging and challenging, as students from a variety of backgrounds come together to begin a common course of serious training.
