In the technique of Tsa Lung physical exercises work intensively with our subtle body-channels and the subtle wind which flows in them. It opens our channels, so that our energies can flow freely. The movements, breath techniques and visualizations open more and more subtle channels. This physical practices are very dynamic and powerful; they cause the channels to open. When the wind can flow freely in the channels, then this wind energy can be used for self healing or can be given to others. Tulku Lobsang teaches us this precious technique of Tibetan Buddhism.

This is also a practice from the Tantrayana tradition that works with the subtle body and its system of channels, chakras, winds and essence. Using a combination of movement, breath technique and visualization, we are able to generate our inner Tummo fire and spread it throughout the body. This warms our blood and burns our blockages. Doing this also begins to activate our bliss, which is something far beyond simple physical pleasure. When we have bliss, we reduce the conceptual mind, but increase our awareness. True bliss takes us outside of thought, into the emptiness of the mind.

This practice electrifies us on all dimensions—body, energy and mind. It works with the physical body by balancing the hormones and regulating the metabolism. It works with the energetic body by opening the channels and the chakras, which are the secret doors to our hidden nature. Our mind is also profoundly affected, becoming more clear, calm and aware, so we can achieve great insight into the nature of phenomena.
Ultimately, Bliss is a practice of love and great compassion. Love is our direct, perceptual awareness. Love is non-duality.

With a special combination of physical movements, breath exercises and visualization we awaken our inner fire, which burns the blockages of karmic imprints.
Tummo is our wisdom fire. It is something we naturally have within ourbodies. This fire, this inner warmth, can be found in the area below the navel chakra. On a physical level it is responsible for the temperature of our body—the heat of digestion and metabolism, the heat thatpowers chemical reactions and builds hormones. But Tummo is much more than this! On an energetic level, the Tummo fire blazes through the channels, melting away the subtlest blockages and surging energy throughout the body. On the level of mind, Tummo is the source of love, joy, happiness and bliss.
Tulku Lobsang has a very special connection to Tummo. This is his specialty and he can teach it like no other. An amazing opportunity!

Our minds are incredible! They are capable of the most pure, subtle consciousness. In fact, the nature of our mind is “clear light” or rigpa. Unfortunately, we rarely get to experience this pure quality of our mind. Instead, our awareness is clouded by our conceptual mind—the mind of thoughts and limitations and ignorance.
Through the practice of Rigpa, we train ourselves to go beyond the conceptual, ignorant mind and we go to the deep part of the mind. To do this, we simply leave everything as it is and look.
But this is how we come to deeply know ourselves. This is how we reach a state of pure awareness, a wisdom without limitation.

The regular practice of Lu Jong supports the self healing power of the body and it increases one’s flexibility, power and vitality. This practice also helps us to let go of negative emotions and convictions, so our minds become more open and more clear enabling us to be more aware of our inner nature. At an energetic level Lu Jong helps us to release physical and mental blocks. It makes the energy flow more freely in our body so our hearts may open.
