Notes and Events:

The Infinite Ammiratus Way is a progressive school of thought within Buddhism, blending Zen principles with a rejection of dogma and hierarchy akin to Protestant ideals. Focused on love and compassion, it seeks to harmonize simplicity and non-attachment, addressing potential pitfalls in traditional Zen. Emphasizing love in all interactions, adherents strive for emotional and spiritual growth, with Bodhisattvas exemplifying this path in the Dhyāna Zen Temple. Departing from rigid structures, the approach fosters adaptability and openness. In a world marked by division, the Infinite Ammiratus Way offers a contemporary bridge between Zen teachings and the universal human desire for connection and spiritual fulfillment.

Spiritual Director: Khenchen Lama Rinpoche  
Notes and Events:

Tibetan Yoga Centre provides a comprehensive program of study and practice focusing on core aspects of Tibetan yoga of body, speech and mind in order to realize the ultimate wisdom and compassion mind of Buddha. The program combines practices involving visualizations, yoga of channels, winds and drops, with contemplations and insight into the nature of the mind (rigpa) for efficient progress on the spiritual path. The core teachings of Tibetan Yoga Centre are The yogas of the six bardosof the Nyingma lineage of Tibetan Buddhism, presented in the form of eight courses, including yoga of dreams and yoga of dying. To help bring these teachings closer to the background of Western practitioners, the courses of Tibetan Yoga Centre also include information on Western neuroscientific research into changes in mind and brain resulting from meditation. Building on the tradition of enlightened householder yogis in Tibet, the program of the centre was developed for yogis of the current era - practitioners leading busy lives with work and family commitments who want to bring their spiritual practice to swift fruition to fully benefit sentient beings. Courses and retreats of Tibetan Yoga Centre are taught by Khenchen Lama Rinpoche and Dr. Dusana Dorjee.
