Similar to the online tsok practices, formal MSB lineage disciples are welcome to attend the retreat this year through Zoom. The retreat will be broadcast from Pema Osel where Rinpoche will lead the practice with a group of essential personnel.During the 2018 NSS and at Pema Osel the summer of 2019, Rinpoche bestowed the empowerment for Chime Pakme Nyingtik, “The Heart Essence of the Sublime Lady of Immortality.” We will begin this year’s Mahayoga Sangdrup with three days of this practice. The following four days will be similar to the Sangdrup programs we’ve had at Pema Osel since 2009. We will practice the Rangjung Peme Nyingtik sadhana (a terma discovered by Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche) along with the Riwo Sangcho (a practice for purifying karmic debts). An important part of these practices is the feast offerings we make every day. This practice of “great giving without holding back” reverses our habitual self-centered psychology and can thus enable practitioners to overcome even our most tenacious obstacles.This program is open to everyone who has gone through the MSB Lineage Ceremony. It is preferable, but not required, to have received the empowerments for these practices.If you can’t join the online practice, you can still share the merit of these feast practices by making a prayer request and an offering.To participate from home, follow these 3 steps:1 ) Register hereThere is no fee to register for the program but we are encouraged to make offerings. Please register by Aug 22nd, 2022.2 ) Make offerings to the tsok hereAn important part of these practices is the feast offerings we make every day. This practice of “great giving without holding back” reverses our habitual self-centered psychology and can thus enable practitioners to overcome even our most tenacious obstacles. To cover the costs of hosting the practice from Pema Osel and for the tsok offerings, we suggest a $25/day contribution. You can also make a prayer request here.3 ) Get the LiturgiesIf you are participating in the program, you will need the Chimé Pakmé Nyingtik (CPN), Rangjung Peme Nyingtik (RPN), and Riwo Sangchö texts, along with all inserts.

The RPN practice will include certain sections of the CPN that are in the white travel pecha, so be sure to have a copy of that as well.Riwo Sangchö:On the RPN practice days, we do the Riwo Sangchö practice; the short liturgy is included in the white travel pecha.Cheat Sheets:The following cheat sheets can help you follow along with the practice.
