Green Tara and her 21 manifestations & Ödzer Chenma explanation and practice with Oliver Leick from April 30th to May 3rd location Dobogókő, Hungary This retreat will be On-Site & ONLINE Tara embodies the compassion, the energy, and the wisdom of all realized beings. She is considered to be the mother of all Buddhas, and she personifies the perfection of wisdom. As a manifestation of the pure state of the air element, Tara is famous for her capacity of acting quickly and for granting us salvation when we are in great difficulty. Maritse, known in Tibetan as Ödzer Chenma, is a revered dakini and yidam in Vajrayana Buddhism, closely linked to light protection, and the removal of darkness and obstacles. In general we have many problems and try to find mans to resolve them. But sometimes, awareness about the existing problems do not solve the problems. The practice of Green Tara and Ödzer Chenma are very useful for resolving provisional problems. However, these practices have far more profound benefits as well, as their real principle is total realization. In this retreat we will mainly focus on the understanding of these practices according to the teachings of Dzogchen transmitted by Chögyal Namkhai Norbu, which will finally lead to the main practice of Dzogchen, the practice of Guruyoga. To have received the direct transmission of Chögyal Namkhai Norbu or Namkhai Yeshi is mandatory for participating in this retreat.  Registration form - Participation via Zoom >> Registration form - Participation in Person >> Since 1977 Oliver Leick, who has studied and applied these practices of Tara for many years, has continuously studied with his teacher Chögyal Namkhai Norbu. Up to now he has given more than 200 seminars and courses all over the world.
