Weekend of Teaching with visiting monk Karma Zangpo


  • Kagyu Samye Dzong Cape Town 6 Morgenrood Road Cape Town, WC, 7708 South Africa (map)

Zangpo will lead us over the weekend, teaching on Friday evening, Saturday morning and afternoon, and Sunday morning. He will look at Compassion in our daily lives, and at how Chenrezig practice can form a basis or support for this.

 Zangpo first met Lama Yeshe Rinpoche in Kagyu Samye Dzong Johannesburg in the early 1990s when he was a resident volunteer, helping with building repairs and construction. He has a strong connection to the Holy Isle, having lived and worked here for many years in the '90s before moving across to Arran, where he spent eight years in retreat at the Men's Retreat. Zangpo was then sent by Samye Ling to Sekar Retreat in Nepal for a further six years, to practice and study under Drupon Rinpoche.
