In this unique retreat, Lama Tharchin Rinpoche shared heart advice drawn from his own deep meditation experience, presented in an informal and accessible manner. The teachings focus particularly on the essential practice of Guru Yoga while clearly explaining the special terminology of Dzogchen.

What made this retreat especially valuable was Rinpoche's skillful use of everyday activities as opportunities for instruction in addition to formal teachings at the shrine. Throughout the retreat, he incorporated various situations to demonstrate the practice of awareness, such as hiking up the mountain to meditate with vast sky views; maintaining mindfulness while playing at the pool; bringing awareness and devotion to cleaning activities and outdoor work; and sessions at the beach, meditating on the ocean waves. Through these varied settings, Rinpoche illuminated practical methods for maintaining awareness and developing genuine faith and devotion. The videos capture the formal teachings with some selections from the informal settings.
