A Message from the Tergar Instructors

Last night we had the good fortune to speak to Mingyur Rinpoche for half an hour. We had so many questions and none of us knew quite how to start the conversation. What do you say to someone who has been living in caves for four years! But it was immediately apparent that Rinpoche was still Rinpoche. When we expressed our surprise that his English had not deteriorated, he immediately joked, “My English is even better than before!”

We still don’t know what Rinpoche plans to do in the coming months, but we did want to let you know that Rinpoche is in good health. He told us that his first year of retreat had been extremely difficult due to some serious health issues, but that since then his retreat went very smooth and was, in his words, “One of the best periods of my life.”

We will be sure to pass along more information when we have it. In the meantime, please join us in rejoicing that Mingyur Rinpoche has completed his retreat and is in good health.

Warmest wishes,
The Tergar Instructors

Mingyur Rinpoche Has Emerged From His Retreat

As you know, Mingyur Rinpoche was on an extended solitary retreat in the Himalayas for the last four years. In the tradition of the great meditation masters of times past, he spent his time wandering freely with no fixed plan or agenda, meditating in caves and hermitages in remote places.

We are absolutely delighted to inform you that Mingyur Rinpoche has emerged from his retreat! We were overjoyed to receive this news earlier today. As we learn more details about his plans and activities we will keep you updated.

Please check back here as this will be the first place we will post future updates, images and messages from Rinpoche.

 

MINGYUR RINPOCHE SALIÓ DE SU RETIRO!
Queridos amigos:

Como saben, Mingyur Rinpoche se encontraba en un prolongado retiro solitario en los Himalayas desde hace más de cuatro años. Siguiendo la tradición del linaje de los grandes maestros del pasado, deambuló libremente sin agenda ni planes fijos, meditando en cuevas y ermitas de lugares remotos.

En su ausencia, la Comunidad de Meditación de Tergar continuó su progreso con sus Lamas e Instructores, dando talleres de meditación y retiros alrededor del mundo. Estos programas, aunados a nuestra propia práctica personal, nos ayudó a mantener la conexión con Rinpoche y sus enseñanzas durante su retiro.

¡Estamos profundamente emocionados al informarles que MINGYUR RINPOCHE SALIÓ DE SU RETIRO! Nos encantó haber recibido esta noticia el día de hoy. Conforme recibamos detalles de sus planes y actividades, los mantendremos informados. Favor de revisar: Inline image 1learning.tergar.org en donde publicaremos y anunciaremos las actualizaciones y los mensajes de Rinpoche.

Nuestros mejores deseos,
Los Lamas e Instructores de Tergar

 

Chers amis,
Comme vous le savez, Mingyour Rinpotché a entrepris, ces quatre dernières années, une retraite solitaire au long cours dans l'Himalaya. Dans la tradition des grands maîtres de méditation d'autrefois, il a consacré son temps à aller librement, sans programme ni planning, méditant dans des grottes et des ermitages, dans des endroits reculés. En son absence, la communauté Tergar a continué de se développer, les lamas Tergar et les instructeurs organisant des ateliers et des retraites de méditation dans le monde entier. Ces programmes, associés à notre pratique personnelle, nous ont tous aidés à maintenir une connection profonde avec Rinpotché et avec les enseignements, pendant son absence.
Nous sommes absolument enchantés de vous informer que Mingyour Rinpotché est sorti de sa retraite ! Nous avons été ravis de recevoir la nouvelle tout à l'heure. Nous vous tiendrons informés, au fur et à mesure que nous en apprenons plus sur ses plans et ses activités. S'il vous plait, regardez sur www.learning.tergar.org, dans la mesure où c'est le premier endroit où nous posterons les nouvelles et les messages de Rinpotché.
Bien à vous
Les lamas et instructeurs Tergar

 

Queridos amigos,

Como vocês sabem, Mingyur Rinpoche esteve em retiro solitário nas montanhas do Himalaia, nos últimos quatro anos. Mantendo a tradição dos grandes mestres de meditação do passado, ele atravessou todo este período vagando livremente sem agenda ou plano fixo, meditando em cavernas e locais remotos.

Na sua ausência a Comunidade Tergar de Meditação continuou florescendo através de retiros e workshops dados por lamas e instrutores do Tergar, em diferentes partes do mundo. Estes programas, em conjunto com nossa prática pessoal, nos ajudou a manter uma profunda conexão com Rinpoche e seus ensinamentos durante sua ausência.

Nós estamos extremamente contentes em informar que Mingyur Rinpoche saiu de seu retiro! Ficamos muito felizes ao recebermos esta notícia na manhã de hoje. Assim que tivermos mais detalhes sobre seus planos e atividades vocês serão informados. E por favor, visite sempre o site:www.learning.tergar.org pois será lá o primeiro lugar onde publicaremos as novidades e mensagens de Mingyur Rinpoche.

Afetuosamente,
Lamas e Instrutores do Tergar

 

Liebe Freunde,

Wie ihr alle wisst, war Mingyur Rinpoche in den letzten vier Jahren in einem ausgedehnten Einzelretreat im Himalaya.
Ganz in der Tradition großer Meditationsmeister der Vergangenheit verbrachte er die Zeit auf Wanderschaft, ohne Plan oder Programm, und meditierte in Höhlen und abgeschiedenen Einsiedeleien.

Auch während seiner Abwesenheit konnte die Tergar Gemeinschaft wachsen und gedeihen, Tergar Lamas und Instruktoren boten weiterhin weltweit Meditationsworkshops an.
In Verbindung mit unserer eigenen, persönlichen Praxis konnten uns diese Programme dabei helfen, während Rinpoches Abwesenheit eine tiefe Verbindung zu ihm und zu den Lehren aufrecht zu erhalten.

Wir sind überglücklich, euch nun mitteilen zu können, dass Mingyur Rinpoche sein Retreat verlassen hat! Mit großer Freude haben wir diese Nachricht etwas früher am heutigen Tag bekommen. Wir werden euch auf dem Laufenden halten, sobald wir genaueres über seine Pläne und Aktivitäten wissen.
Bitte seht unter www.learning.tergar.org nach, denn dort werden wir zukünftige Updates und Nachrichten von Rinpoche immer zuerst veröffentlichen.

Mit herzlichen Grüßen,

Die Tergar Lamas und Instruktoren

 

Дорогие друзья!

Как вам известно, последние четыре года Мингьюр Ринпоче провёл в Гималаях в длительном одиночном ретрите. Следуя традиции великих мастеров медитации прошлого, он проводил время в свободном странствии, без какого-либо строгого плана или программы, медитируя в пещерах и скитах, расположенных в самых отдалённых и безлюдных местах Гималаев. В его отсутствие всемирное сообщество медитации Тергар продолжало развиваться и процветать, проводя по всему миру разнообразные семинары и ретриты с Ламами и инструкторами сообщества Тергар. Эти программы в сочетании с нашей личной практикой помогали всем нам сохранять глубокую связь с Ринпоче и его учениями во время его длительного отстутствия. Теперь мы счастливы сообщить вам, что Мингюр Ринпоче вышел из ретрита! Мы получили эту необычайно радостную новость сегодня утром. Как только нам станет доступна более подробная информация о его возвращении, планах на будущее и ближайших мероприятиях, мы незамедлительно оповестим вас. Пожалуйста, следите за новостями на сайте www.learning.tergar.org - главном ресурсе, где мы будем размещать все последующие новости и обращения от Ринпоче.
С наилучшими пожеланиями,
Ламы и инструктора сообщества Тергар.

  32. Thank you so much for the video of Rinpoche. Be well, and I’m looking forward to hearing more of your experiences. Thank you Tergar.

  33. Four years had left me with full of worrying questions on Rinpoche’s well being although, Rinpoche intention was clear enough to me and everyone. I consider it a blessing to everyone of us as Rinpoche had emerged and returned gloriously with mission accomplished for the good of all sentient being. Having been deeply connected with Rinpoche in the present time and in the previous incarnation with my family for generations; it gives me extreme delight to say in here, ‘how happy I am, immeasurably’ to see that Rinpoche had bettered himself to uphold the legends of the past incarnation and carries forward the message of Buddha Dharma.

    With prayers of hope, I and my family wish to see you once again in Bhutan. Tashi Deleg la.
