KATA OFFERING CEREMONY
During this teaching, Rinpoche will offer a short blessing ceremony. You will receive a blessed red string from Rinpoche. Traditionally, you can make a kata (blessing scarf) offering where you approach Rinpoche with a kata folded in half and held in your prayer mudra. Rinpoche will then put the kata over your head as a blessing. If you wish, you can also offer a monetary donation. Put any money offering in an envelope and hand it over during the offering ceremony.
The best gift you can offer to your teacher is your personal inner practice and the ceremony just represents an outer form of offering.
Please note: we do not sell Katas at the Retreat. If you wish to make a Kata Offering to Rinpoche, you can bring your own kata. Traditional donation envelopes will be available at the bookstand. |

Dzogchen is the true nature of our mind. It means “Great Perfection”. It is the state of pure awareness. It is the wisdom that exists beyond all limitations and through which we can come to know everything. Our current state of mind is conditioned and bound by limitations. We perceive life conceptually and indirectly. We never see things as they truly are and suffer as a result.
Dzogchen implies direct perception and is free of all thoughts and concepts. It is not about reaching a higher or deeper state; ultimately there is nothing to reach for and nothing to realize. All is naturally well, exactly as it is.
This practice is without techniques, without concepts and without meditation. When we practice Dzogchen, we simply leave everything and look. When we leave everything alone, without judgment or reaction, and simply perceive what is there, we begin to recognize the nature of mind. In this way, we use our mind to observe our mind. The mind is like water. When it is still, it naturally becomes clear. This is how we come to deeply know ourselves. When we know the mind, we know all.
__________________________________
Dzogchen is onze ware natuur. Het betekent “Grootste Perfectie”. Het is de staat van zuiver bewustzijn. Het is de wijsheid die voorbijgaat aan alle beperkingen en ons in een staat van alwetendheid brengt. Ons huidig bewustzijn is geconditioneerd en begrensd. Daardoor zien we de dingen nooit zoals ze zijn en ervaren we problemen.
Bij Dzogchen gaat het om de directe waarneming, een waarneming die geheel vrij is van gedachten en concepten. Het gaat niet om het bereiken van een verheven of diepe staat. Uiteindelijk is er niets te bereiken of te realiseren. Alles is van nature goed, precies zoals het is.
De beoefening van Dzogchen is vrij van alle technieken, methoden, concepten en meditaties. We laten alles wat opkomt zoals het is en kijken er alleen maar naar zonder iets af te wijzen of te willen hebben. Op deze manier gebruiken we onze geest om naar onze geest te kijken. De geest is als water, als het niet beweegt wordt het vanzelf helder. Zo leren we onze ware natuur kennen. Als we onze ware natuur kennen zijn we vrij.
