Reading Jamgön Kongtrül’s Encyclopedia
with Jules Levinson, Ph.D.
(01:00 - 02:30 pm Pacific Time, Wednesdays)
In the Summer of 1991, Khen Rinpoché Tsültrim Gyatso taught day and night without interruption for a month at the Rocky Mountain Dharma Center in Colorado. Mornings were devoted to Karmapa Wangchuk Dorjé’s exposition of the Great Seal (phyag rgya chen mo); afternoons were given over to Kongtrül Lodrö Tayés Encyclopedia (shes bya kun khyab). It was my honor to serve as his translator on those afternoons. It would be both delightful and meaningful to read the sections of that treatise devoted to principles for interpretation of Buddhist scripture, the three turnings of the wheel of doctrine, and the two truths in the four schools of tenets with students at The Dharma Farm in the Fall of this year. Please join me if you can.
