Dream Yoga Retreat April 12th -15th

Admin from Nyima Tashi Kagyu Buddhist Centre

Registration now Open
BOOKINGS CLOSE 31ST MARCH
In March 2008 Traleg Kyabgon Rinpoche gave a series of talks on Dream Yoga offering a comprehensive overview of the philosophy of dreams as presented in Tibetan Buddhism, an in-depth analysis both in terms of one's psychological states and ones physical well being, we are pleased to present these original talks in their entirety. These precious Video recordings will be presented on the big screen for an IN PERSON audience.

What is Real? What is not Real? What is True? What is not True?

"Our mind is always involved in determining what kind of experiences that we have, we see how our mind and even how our body are intimately related, so we cannot understand the practice of Dream Yoga if we cannot appreciate this notion. Dream yoga is a meditation practice. When we worry, when we anticipate things, when we remember things we use images so imagery becomes a very powerful tool, whatever image comes to our mind, then that arouses our emotions, feelings and passions. Buddhism has always emphasized the notion of interplay, interplay between fact and fiction, reality and unreality. Rinpoche will present Dream Yoga in the context of the Buddhist tradition and in terms of why Dream Yoga is important."

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
