(Not so) new member hoping to (re)connect with other Dzogchen practitioners

Post by Domingo »

Hey guys!

I'm a student of the late Chögyal Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche since almost 20 years.

I am living a little bit far away from other sangha members, and I'm looking to connect with other practitioners for some inspiring discussions...

Many Tashi Delegs,
Domingo

Welcome!

Do you have the Sangha app? I also have little meatspace connection to other students of Rinpoche and I have to admit, it has grown on me as a way of knowing about stuff going on, and having some feeling of community connection, however limited.

Hi Johnny!

No, I didn't know about the Sangha app (only know Norbunet), but I found it. Now I have to find out if some of the DC folks that I still know are members to send me a invitation. :thinking:

Thank you very much!

Someone here likely can, idk if I have permission for it or not, if I do, I will.

Thank you very much, Johnny! I read all the details on the Sangha app website, and it looks like a real great project! Can't believe I never came across it until now...

I would like to PM you, but obviously, I'm to new here and can't PM yet... But I'll do as soon as I'm allowed to.

Good Evening,

I do not know in which part of Austria you live, but there is a stupa in Austria where there are some on site events each year which are also possible to attend online. http://yungdrung-bon.com/yeshe-sal-ling/

Best Wishes

Thank you, Täpa!

I know that center, however, I never managed to go there (I live at the other end of the country, so it's approx. 7h away from me). Lama Sangye Mönlam seems to be very much into Ma Gyud... maybe I'll visit them if they organize a Dzogchen retreat someday ;)
