Space, whose nature is free of concepts;
Encompasses
everything;
Likewise, the stainless expanse of the mind's true
nature
Permeates all beings.
Maitreya - Asanga
Buddha
Maitreya gave the Uttaratantra teaching to the great Buddhist
master Asanga. One of the great classical texts of Mahayana
Buddhism, this teaching presents how buddhanature exists within
us, how it is approached, and what are the qualities of manifest
buddhahood.
Revision
Aware that a number of people were very keen to follow his teaching,
although they had not been present last year, Rinpoche has asked
there be a revision course, which might also be useful for students
who attended the previous session. In English and French, led
by the members of the Padmakara Translation Group
Cost: 20 € for the revision course (without meals and accommodation)
The Teaching
Teaching in English translated into French Dzongsar Khyentse
Rinpoche has announced that his teaching will only be open to
students who attended his teaching in 2003 and students who
have taken part in the revision course. One also has to attend
the whole course.
Cost for the entire course (teaching only) : 220 €
