Akong Rinpoche : Living the Legacy
Exploring the treasury of Akong Rinpoche’s Teachings
The most meaningful way to celebrate and honour our illustrious Founder, Teacher and Guide is not only to read his teachings but put them into practice.
In this series of sessions with Ani Rinchen Khandro, we will delve into the treasury of Akong Rinpoche’s profound wisdom, warmth and compassion, expressed in his inimitable and often humorous style. Rinpoche didn’t just talk the talk. He absolutely walked the walk, as shown in the selfless example of his own life, for the benefit of all beings. Way to go.

“If we rest in the present with full mindfulness then there are no obstacles.”
Session 2 : Kindness as a Way of Life
“Whatever obstacles arise, if you deal with them through kindness without trying to escape, then you have real freedom.”
Session 3 : Calming the Waves of the Emotions
“Everything that arises and which makes us unhappy
comes from us. We have it within ourselves”
