My first meeting with the meditation group was awesome. Although I was a bit nervous as I only spoke a few words in Spanish, the translator that I worked with had a great command of both Spanish and English and put me at ease. I came to Venezuela to bring the South American group up to speed with the North American meditation group. This was my first residential assignment where I actually lived in the city center and taught meditation for five mornings and two nights a week. Every month, I also taught a workshop on health, internal exercises, and advanced Qi gong practices, and much more. The teachings were based on Tibetan Buddhism, the Taoist systems and the teachings of Swami Rudrananda (Rudy). Rudy taught an eclectic blend of techniques he called "kundalini yoga" (no formal relation to the Indian tradition by that name). If you aren't familiar with Rudy's teachings, pick up a copy of his book, Spiritual Cannibalism. The other meditation techniques and teachings were based on His Holiness Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche. He was a Vajrayan master, scholar, poet, teacher, and head of the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism. I was fortunate enough to get his personal blessing on two different occasions. The Dalai Lama regarded him as his principal teacher in the Nyingma tradition and of Dzogchen. The teachings included the six perfections: 1.Generosity 2.Ethics 3.Forbearance/ Patience 4.joyfulendeavour diligence 5.Meditation 6. Discriminating wisdom There is a saying in the Orient that a person needs all six before he goes from this shoreof Samsara, the endless cycle of suffering caused by birth, death, and re-birth, to the further shore or Nirvana. If you haven't heard of Nirvana, it is the place free from suffering and a place of individual incredible existence. The ritual includes repentance of past karma and prayers for enlightenment in the next life.
