With compassion and insight, Ringu Tulku Rinpoche will reveal during this 
weekend retreat how the ancient teachings of Buddhism can be applied to 
the modern world. Rinpoche focuses on the direct experience of 
recognizing and embracing the nature of our feelings and perceptions. The 
quality of our minds, he says, depends on the quality of the seeds in our 
minds. Buddhism teaches us how to nourish the seeds of joy and 
transform the seeds of suffering so that our understanding, love, and 
compassion can flower. 

Ringu Tulku Rinpoche is a Tibetan Buddhist Master of the Kagyu Order. He
