- Tantrayana
  
  On the Tantrayana path—the foundation of Tulku Lobsang’s teachings—the body is the vehicle for the development and transformation of the self.

  Bön is the indigenous spiritual tradition of Tibet. It teaches us about deepening our connection with the five elements, which are the fundamental energetic qualities of all phenomena.
- Tibetan Medicine
  
  The principle of Tibetan Medicine is that whatever is beneficial is medicine and whatever causes suffering is disease. Ultimately, all disease is ignorance, and the ultimate medicine is wisdom.
- Tibetan Astrology
  
  Astrology is a fundamental part of Tibetan culture. It functions on the principle of interdependence, particularly of the five elements and time. Astrology and medicine support each other as wisdom and method, respectively.

Teachings Topics

It is not enough to simply hear a teaching. For a teaching to have true, lasting benefit it needs to be given in the right way and taken in the right way. We need the right teacher, the right teaching, and the right way to receive.
- Lu Jong
  
  Lu Jong is an ancient practice rooted in Tibetan Medicine that releases blockages on the physical, mental and energetic levels. Doing this movement practice makes us healthier, and also more calm and balanced.
- Tsa Lung
  
  With Tsa Lung we work with the breath. This is the way to touch deep within the body and open more subtle channels. Change the breath; change the mind.
- Tummo
  
  This Inner Fire practice is a method for deep transformation. It opens us on the subtlest level, melts our karmic blockages and completely changes us. Our body is the diamond key. Through it, we are able to achieve diamond wisdom.
- Bliss
  
  This practice utilizes the vehicle of the body to enable us to go beyond the conceptual mind. In this way we achieve higher realizations about the nature of ourselves and reality and develop deep compassion.
- Rigpa
  
  Rigpa is how we come to know the true nature of the mind, which is emptiness. Because of emptiness, everything arises. When we know the mind, we know all.
- Guru Yoga
  
  Guru Yoga is the spine of Tantrayana. Without this feeling, there is no strength, no power. By cultivating devotion, we reduce our obstacles and receive blessings in our practice.
- Lo Jong
  
  Problems are our best teachers. They give us the opportunity to transform ourselves. Lo Jong shows us to use problems to train our mind to be calm and peaceful in any situation.
- Kum Nye
  
  Kum Nye is Tibetan massage. It helps spread our essence throughout the body and makes everything flow. This restoration is especially important for Tantrayana practitioners, since we work so intensively with the body and channels.
- Tog Chöd
  
  Tulku Lobsang founded this Wisdom Sword Practice—a moving meditation with a sword. This powerful technique harnesses our inner power, bringing us swiftly into the present moment, slaying our fears and expectations.
- Gyulu
  
  If we can cut through the illusion of temporary existence, if we can recognize that nothing exists the way we believe it to and that it is just a projection of our thought, then we can exist infinitely.
- Sleep Yoga
  
  Every time we fall asleep we naturally reach the clear light state of mind, the most pure, subtle consciousness. This happens automatically, but to catch it and achieve realizations, we need to practice.
- Dream Yoga
  
  Even when we are asleep we can continue our Buddhist practices. With Dream Yoga we try to realize the dream as a dream, and then we can understand illusion.
- Fearless Death
  
  With exercises and meditations we can prepare ourselves now to navigate the different phases of death. In this way, we will recognize when we enter Bardo, the intermediate state, and thereby have a profound affect on our next life.
- Gang Gyok
  
  This is a yogic running technique. Using visualizations and special breath techniques, one can learn to harness great power and boundless energy.
- Mindfulness
  
  Learn to enter the present moment through mindfulness, and find the key to change your whole life.
- The Power of the Mind Series
  
  We don’t realize how powerful our minds are! When we use its power, we can totally change our lives and make them like heaven. Tulku Lobsang introduces us to our own power.

Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche has developed a standardised and comprehensive Teacher Certification Program to support the spreading of various precious methods rooted in the Tantrayana, Bön and Mahamudra traditions while maintaining the authenticity and quality of the teachings.

The Teacher Certification Program provides the opportunity to successfully disseminate the practices - so that they benefit many people - while preserving the purity of the transmission. It also unites Certified Teachers in a way that promotes community and mutual support.

Usually, the Teacher Education Courses are held by Certified Educators, followed by a Master Class with Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche. This Online Live Teacher Certification Program provides the rare opportunity to be educated by Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche himself. After having successfully completed this Teacher Certification Program, the participants will be certified as "Shiné - Traditional Tibetan Shamatha Meditation" Teachers in the lineage of Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche.

“Shiné – Traditional Tibetan Shamatha Meditation” is a practice which is peaceful and powerful at the same time. It aims to calm our mind and train it in a way so that it transforms from its usual active and agitated state into a calm and clear one that gradually allows for awareness to arise. As a result, our mind becomes more peaceful and less disturbed by both internal factors like thoughts and emotions, and external factors, like a stressful environment.
