I have already reported that I now have permission to read a preliminary and unapproved translation of the 2010 release of the Supreme and Unsurpassable Mahamudra of Liberation (SAUMOL) at the temple, which we did at our retreats in November and December. While I am hopeful that this text will become available to all who seek it, I do not know when that will happen. It is a dharma practice that anyone can follow–whether they have the related initiations or not. It is not just for those who follow the vajrayana or even just for Buddhists. It would be helpful for any sincere seeker of truth and liberation in these Dharma-Ending days. We have two weekend retreats planned in March (15-16 and 22-23) where you can hear the SAUMOL.
Last month we started hearing another preliminary translation of another very important work; the sutra based on the Heart Sutra by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. Since it is quite dense and long, that will take several months. We will repeat that reading March 18-22 and a second reading from March 24-30 at the temple and still have room at the temple for anyone wanting to join us. You can come for both sessions or either one. Even if we book all the rooms you are welcome to stay elsewhere and commute. There will be two sessions each day at 9:00 am and again at 7:00 pm.
