February
In February, H.E. Ling Rinpoche traveled to Israel, at the invitation of Shantideva Study Group (FPMT). Rinpoche visited the Human Spirit Psychoanalytic-Buddhist Training Program in Israel and gave a talk to students and staff about how to cultivate greater mental well-being, by reducing self-centeredness and by cherishing others. Rinpoche gave two days of Buddhist teachings based on Lama Tsongkhapa’s “Foundation of All Good Qualities,” and a further two days of teachings on Lama Atisha’s “The Bodhisattva’s Garland of Jewels” in Tel Aviv, where Rinpoche also bestowed the Lama Tsongkhapa Guru Yoga empowerment.
