The meditation of bliss is an important Buddhist meditation practice. Bliss is the only way to free ourselves from dependently arising happiness. It's the only way to be free of everything. Through that we can experience the independent, absolute happiness. Peace is bliss. Right now we are only capable to feel happiness on a physical level. This happiness originates in the happiness of the five elements. It is the happiness based on the element earth. This is the feeling of the simple bliss, the feeling of love.

The more bliss we feel, the less we differentiate between "I" and "You". Our feelings of attachment, desire and anger are reduced - therefore even our negative emotions become smaller and smaller. The practice of bliss is the best technique to overcome all our negative emotions.

The basic reason of many diseases is ignorance. As long as we are ignorant, we will experience disease. pain and suffering. Ignorance only can be overcome by awareness. We reach an awareness, when we realize and understand which actions bring us happiness and which cause suffering. When we see things as they really are and not as we want to see them, then we have a clear, seeing mind. The clear mind causes us to be aware of our own thoughts and to understand that our negative thoughts and negative emotions are the root cause for suffering. Another cause for diseases are the three mental poisons ignorance, attachment and anger. Through different techniques we can overcome out negative emotions and reach insight.

To experience love is the most important experience in our life. Through this experience our life will be meaningful and precious. Love opens our chakras and is the best method to overcome the ego. Only through the practice of overall, unconditional love we are able to practice real compassion. This is the way to approach all sentient beings with esteem and respect. The result of this is the wish to dedicate one's life to the well-being of everybody and to reduce the suffering in the world. Love enables us to master our life and to accept as well difficult living conditions instead of despairing. The power of love is as well the basis for integrating our spiritual practice in daily life. The feeling of love is innate. But as the ego grows constantly, as we identify so much with ourselves, this love often is dulled by negative emotions. Without love we are not able to see the beauty of a person, of nature, an object or a place. Because our watching for example a flower is nothing than a reflection of our own mental state. This is the reason why we are not able to see something beautiful when our capacity to love is only superficial. Once we learn to feel and gift deep, overall love, then we are able to feel deep, long-lasting happiness.

Life is full of problems—as long as we are alive, there will be problems! Pushing them away only increases our suffering and creates more problems. This is because rejecting them is also a denial of our nature.

Tulku Lobsang offers us another method. In the Tantrayana Buddhist tradition, we learn to use our problem to come out of the problem. The problem itself can be the solution to the problem. A simple example is rather than just renouncing a negative emotion such as anger, to take that anger and redirect it at the anger itself. In this way, the anger can become a major motivation to purify one’s mind and develop spiritually. We will decrease our suffering and increase our wisdom when we shift our perception of problems. We should embrace our problems and give thanks for them! Problems teach us great lessons. They are our best teachers. They are opportunities for developing ourselves. Therefore, we must have respect for those that create problems for us, because this helps us to better know ourselves. In fact, this method is fastest way to reach enlightenment. By transforming our problems, we also transform ourselves. By transforming our perception, we expand our desire for all things. Rather than wanting some things and rejecting other things, we accept all things as beneficial. When we view our problems as medicine, we have the opportunity to develop great joy and wisdom.

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 our bodies. 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 that powers 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. 

Unfortunately, as we become older we start to lose this natural warmth. Then, our hormones and essences automatically reduce. But it doesn’t have to be this way! The Tummo practice will reignite our inner fire. Through a combination of movements, breath techniques and visualizations we generate the Tummo flame and spread it throughout the body. The flame grows, starting from below the navel and rising higher and higher. It softly penetrates each of the main chakras, spreading to all the branches and every pore of our body. 

The chakras are secret doors to our being. Opening them and connecting with our Tummo fire brings us great realizations. In this way, we tap into our inner wisdom. From this great presence we can realize the true nature of our mind, fundamental wisdom, and unconditional love and compassion.

Tulku Lobsang has a very special connection to Tummo. This is his specialty and he can teach it like no other. An amazing opportunity!

The teachings of Bardo are the teachings of the intermediate state, the different phases of death.

Death is one of the most important happenings in our life. Death is not only something that happens outside of our lives but also on the inside. Therefore, everyone needs to face death. But we need the view of Buddha. Death is the moment where you can be in your true nature - the clear light state of mind.

We have small deaths and a big death. The small deaths happens to us every 24 hours, while the big death happens every 100 years. We can train ourselves to grasp the information that the small deaths can provide to us in order to be prepared for the big death.

In this seminar, Tulku Lobsang will teach us about the Buddhist view on death as well as some exercises that can prepare us for our own death.

To feel and experience love is the most important thing in our life. This is how we become happy. Without love and happiness we are imprisoned in our problems, in our selfishness and in our suffering. We find the purpose in life when we feel love for ourselves and give love to our fellow beings. When we are able to let our love flow freely, then we will receive love from our environment and, in this way, experience happiness.

In this workshop, Tulku Lobsang shares methods for creating more space for happiness in our daily life. Too often we simply do not make the decision to be happy and so, do not make time for it. Then, we cannot see that happiness is already there. If we learn to cultivate happiness, then no matter what else changes in life, happiness is abundant. Because happiness is there, we just need to open the door and welcome it.

By connecting with love and removing obstacles to our love, we can open the door to happiness in this very moment. When love flows freely through us and to those around us, we can cultivate happiness right now. Everything in life happens within the power of now. Why is the now so powerful?

Because now is the result of the past, and now is the cause of the future. Therefore, you can, and need, to change just one thing, the now. You just change one simple moment—now—and you change your entire life. You open the door and welcome happiness.

When we decide, we create space for change to occur. Change always happens anyway, but when we decide, we give it the direction that we want. Usually, when we want to do something, we spend a lot of time thinking about it. This puts pressure on us, and keeps us in a confused state. Therefore, we must learn how to make decisions. As soon as we decide, the pressure falls away and we win time. Decision has the power to help us separate the important things from the unimportant things. It generates energy and brings our daily routine on track. 

Decision helps us to be in the here and now. When we decide, we have less thought about the past and we don’t lose ourselves in thoughts about the future. We must be in the present moment if we want to decide. And in order to be in the present moment, we need to be aware. We must shift our focus from the wish to do something to the awareness of the act of doing it. For this, we need to learn how to train our awareness. One way to do this is to stay in silence. From the place of silence, decisions become clear.

In this teaching, Tulku Lobsang will share methods from the wisdom of Buddhist Psychology. In addition to teaching about the power of decision, he will guide us in training the mind through different states of development and show us how to abide in stillness. We will learn the common obstacles that we may encounter and the antidotes to overcome them. The more we know about the development of our mind, the more motivated we are to connect with our true nature and live in alignment with our purpose. 

We live in a modern world where we all often suffer from mental or physical diseases. We are in an emotional imbalance our body and mind and do not take the time to rebalance them. Tibetan medicine bases on the conviction that negative emotions are the cause of every disease. Even the environment we live in as well as the way how we lead our lives have direct effect on our health state. The same is to say about the mental state we encounter our fellow beings and the nutrition which plays an important role in the health of our body and mind. Tulku Lobsang teaches us four steps to heal our body and mind and tells us which are the basic principles for being balanced mentally and physically. This is how the problems we encounter will not throw us out of the track.

During our life we pass about 240.000 hours sleeping. By the term dream meditation we understand the practice of lucid dreaming. This means that we aware of what we dreaming while we dream. Through this practice we learn how to use our dreams for spiritual practice.

First we need to recognize during our dreams that we are dreaming - for being then able, in the second step, to control our dream. In this state of mind we can evoke willingly situations which cause us problems in daily life. And then live them with a prior unknown ease. If we dream consciously, we can learn in the dream to evoke difficulties of our daily life and learn how to handle them. 

Body postures, mantras and visualizations are learned which prepare lucid dreaming.
