Being in the Moment, Flowing with the Seasons - Haiku Poetry
Workshop with Mankh
|
 |
Though its roots go back at least 2600 years,
haiku began to flourish in 17th century Japan.
Akin to Zen Buddhist and Taoist philosophy (and
other Asian arts), haiku poetry encourages
attention to the present moment as well as
keeping connected with the pathway of seasons. A
wonderful way to align with nature, enhance
one's mindfulness (as well as Zen mindlessness),
and hone your verbal skills (being so short,
haiku require great precision!)

Lama Lobsang Palden

Lama
Lobsang Palden was born in eastern Tibet and was
recognized as a tulku, or reincarnated lama, as a
young boy. He was educated at Tashi Kyil Monastery
in Amdo, where he apprenticed with a Tibetan doctor
and achieved the equivalent of a Master’s degree in
Tibetan Buddhism. At age 18, he escaped
Chinese-occupied Tibet, traversing over the
Himalayas until he finally reached India, where his
dream of meeting His Holiness the Dalai Lama was
fulfilled. Lama Lobsang has traveled the world
extensively, teaching the precious Tibetan Buddhist
Dharma and Tibetan Yantra Yoga, and practicing
Tibetan Healing Massage Ceremonies. He is the
spiritual director of Blue Beryl Dharma Center in
Chicago, IL. For further information visit
