Dr. Lobsang's seminar on
two important truths

The event

Dr. Lobsang Shrestha

Dr. Lobsang Shrestha is an experienced Tibetan Medicine doctor who has travelled extensively around Europe, South America and United States for the past 35 years. He spends his time teaching and disseminating precious knowledge on human health anchored in his unique traditional Tibetan medicine. 

The two important truths in life

According to traditional Tibetan medicine and psychology (Sowa Rigpa and Semkham Rigpa) all human beings will experience two truths during their lives, that of disease & illness and that of dying & death. 

Dr. Lobsang will give a two-days intensive teaching to help overcome these challenges and face these unavoidable truths.

The teachings can be followed both online (120€) and at Nalanda Monastery, in the main Gompa (120€). 
You can also join us for lunch, for both days if you so wish, but we kindly ask you to participate – 12€ per meal per person.

You can register to the event and make payments below.

Saturday 29 November: First Truth - diseases and illnesses

Morning: from 9:30 to 12:30
Afternoon: from 14:30 to 18:30

Diseases are fundamental causes of enormous sufferings and loss of precious human life.

The first part of the teaching will uncover the various causes of particular acute diseases like cancers, brain strokes, chronic diseases, blood pressure issues, heart attacks and other illnesses that provoke premature death.

Dr. Lobsang will also teach about the prevention of such diseases based on proper psychology, alimentation, correct discipline and behaviours that one can apply in regular everyday life.

Sunday 30 November: Second Truth - dying and death

Morning : from 9:30 to 12:30
Afternoon : from 14.30 to 18:00

The first Dharma Seal states that all conditioned phenomena are impermanent. It follows then that everyone born on earth will die sooner or later from various causes.

Since death is uncertain, in the second part of the teaching Dr. Lobsang will share some insight on how to accept this reality and prepare for it. 

He will cover some of the following topics:

  1. Brief information on conception of human physiology, relationship between body, mind and life.
  2. The process of dying, the dissolution of all the physical energies, five elements, five senses and the supreme subtle wind energy into mental consciousness. One that travels from the present to the next life. Explanation on the bardo stages  (intermediate states) and the final death.
  3. The importance of accompanying and helping people to die in harmony and fearlessness to peacefully depart into the next destination – the next life.
  4. A brief meditation on the death experience with simple guidance.
  5. How to enjoy and rejoice in the present life and some practices to use our precious life in order to be more beneficial and meaningful.

May all sentient beings be free from all limitless sufferings.
