Khenpo Jigme will teach the Seven Point Mind Training, an amalgam of about 100 slogans that summarize the entirety of the Buddhist path to love, compassion and enlightenment. Khenpo is resident lama at Vajra Vidya Retreat Center in the remote town of Crestone, Colorado and has been a teacher at Thrangu Rinpoche's monastic university in Nepal. Originally from Bhutan, he has completed the three-year-retreat and is skilled in meditation, Vajrayana ritual and fine points of Buddhist philosophy. He has a lively and direct teaching style that appeals to Westerners.
The Seven Point Mind Training was authored by Karma Chagme in the 11th century and based on teachings from his master, Atisha, who collected the pith of the leading masters of Buddhism during its height.
