Exploring the Dakini Principle

– This course is a cooperation between Kamalashila Institute and Nalandabodhi Germany –


10 – 11:30 a.m. (Pacific) Feb. 8, 15 and 22


Register

This three-evening Tuesday sequence on the dakini principle is designed to inspire fearlessness  – to invite play within space and to ignite compassion.

Part lecture and part interactive exploration, the evenings offer an opportunity to become better acquainted with some famous dakinis while investigating and celebrating the energies of these sky-goers (Skt. ḍākinī, Tib. khandro), energies that enliven and surround us.

Lee teaches interactively, so this course is intended to be a live course,  and no videos will be provided.
