Dzogchen is the non-dual or direct-access mystic teachings of Tibet. It directly points out and introduces us to our true (divine, Buddha-like) innate nature. This innate luminosity or Clear Light Awareness is the ultimate reality of a temporal nowness, or the Dharamakaya. Dzogchen masters tell us that: "We are all Buddha by nature; we only have to recognize and awaken to who and what we truly are."
Lama Surya Das will introduce and lead us in the principles and practice of this simple and powerful path of enlightenment, with his renowned light and lively approach to American Buddhism and timeless wisdom, including meditation, chanting, and ample time for question and answer.
