Dzogchen Six Lamps
July 5-6, 2025, 9am-12pm (PT)
Teaching will be available on Zoom.
Dzogpa Chenpo, also known as the “Great Perfection,” is considered the path of self-liberation and the highest form of teaching in the Yungdrung Bön tradition. Within this tradition, there are four main Dzogchen texts (Zhungchen Dezhi): The Zhang Zhung Nyen Gyud, the Dragpa Korsum, the Gabpa Gukor, and the Yetri Thasel.
Chaphur Rinpoche will give the teaching and transmission of the essence of Bonpo Dzogchen with the Six Lamps from The Zhang Zhung Nyen Gyud.
The Instructions on the Six Lamps is a profound and important work from the Bön Dzogchen tradition. It is one of the root texts of the Zhangzhung Nyen Gyud (Oral Transmission of Zhangzhung) series of orally transmitted teachings. Considered to be the central work of the inner cycle of these teachings, it expertly details the principles of the natural state and its visionary marvels. The root text describes highly secret precepts of Dzogchen (Great Perfection) practice—the teachings of Trekchö and Thögel—as revealed by Tapihritsa to Gyerpung Nangzher Löpo. The teachings in this text represent oral instructions transmitted by a single master to a single disciple in the mode known as “single transmission.” It is through such a practice that one can see the clear light of one’s own mind before achieving complete buddhahood. In this respect, the text contains a complete teaching of Dzogchen, from beginning to end.
We at Gyalshen Institute feel very fortunate that Chaphur Rinpoche has agreed to impart these precious instructions, which are rarely taught in the West. It is his wish that the blessing inherent in receiving this teaching is open to all who wish to attend. Everyone is welcome to join us for this auspicious teaching and empowerment.
