Requirements:
To attend this course, you will be required to keep a daily meditation journal and make effort to meditate six days a week using the techniques presented.

Pre-Requisites:
This is a extremely difficult and advanced course. Students with a serious interest in understanding ultimate reality are welcomed. This is not a drop-in course. Previous Bok Jinpa courses, particularly Bok Jinpa II, are recommended but not required.

Course Description:
Lord Buddha predicted, “After I have passed away and 400 years have come and gone. A monk called the Naga shall appear. He is one of great faith who will uphold the teachings.”

This is Arya Nagarjuna’s greatest work on emptiness. The Root Text on Wisdom (Prajnya Nama Mula Madhyamaka Karika) clarifies the true meaning of Middle Way philosophy and systematically confronts how we misunderstand the world. This text presents the highest world-view of ultimate reality.

This is a hands-on, experiential course with weekly meditation assignments.

Lisette and I have been working this past year to save some money for our Three Year Retreat coming up in October 2010.

We see the recent global economic meltdown magnifying due to fear. To throw a wrench in the samsaric mini-cycle and create the causes for us to have our own retreat cabin, we will not give into fear of scarcity. We will not be using the money we’ve saved for ourselves.

We have donated our $10,000 to build a retreat cabin for Mercedes Bahleda.

For the audio from a teaching on we chose Mercedes and our reasons for this karmic act of truth, click here.

A cabin that meets Arizona’s required building codes will cost somewhere between $22,500 and $42,000 depending on what is being built.

To download a complete cabin plan click here.

We humbly request your help to build a cabin for Mercedes Bahleda

Please mail donations of any amount to:

Diamond Mountain
PO Box 37
Bowie, AZ 85605

Cabin 35 for Mercedes Bahleda

Diamond Mountain is a 501(c)3 tax exempt
