Buddhist Psychology:
Mind Explained

FREE WEBINAR

Free Webinar with Mingyur Rinpoche
August 3rd, 2024

The Buddhist way of studying the mind and how it can be transformed is called Abhidharma. If you are interested in exploring a roadmap to mental health, the Abhidharma teachings offer you meditation methods for uprooting the causes of suffering and finding inner freedom.

This free event marks the beginning of Tergar’s 2024–25 Transmission, Buddhist Psychology: Mind Explained, a series of online courses and retreats with Mingyur Rinpoche on Abhidharma. This is the first time Rinpoche will offer this teaching to a wider audience.

“The Abhidharma is an invitation to smash, to break down, to cut through, and to completely destroy and overcome every tendency toward extremes of arrogance, greed, and bewilderment.”

  • The Abhidharma is an important collection of teachings that focuses on developing wisdom (Skt. prajna), helping meditators deepen their understanding of the workings of the mind and thereby free themselves from the causes of suffering and chronic dissatisfaction. These teachings are considered one of the three main categories of Buddhist teachings, alongside the Sutra and Vinaya. Together, these three are known as the “Three Baskets.”

  • “Transmission” is a traditional term that refers to a set of meditation teachings that is passed down from a teacher to a student or group of students. In the Tergar context, “transmission” means that Mingyur Rinpoche passes on important lineage teachings to students so that we can recognize the buddha within and stabilize this recognition. The transmission happens through online courses, webinars and retreats. The 2024–25 transmission will be based on Rinpoche's new text, Stainless Prajna: Stages of Meditation on the Treasury of Abhidharma.

  • Not at all. Mingyur Rinpoche teaches in a highly relatable way, so much of this transmission (including the free kickoff webinar) is based on exploring our lived experience. These teachings have the power to benefit anyone who wishes to understand the mind, reduce the causes of suffering and learn how to cultivate well-being, mental health and inner freedom.
