In this special intensive, Dr. Nida transmits the teachings of Mahamudra according to the Yuthok Nyingthig tradition. These teachings will include instructions on the Sutra and Tantra paths of Mahamudra, including the methods of the Four Mudras and Four Yogas.

The Yuthok Nyingthig is a comprehensive set of Tibetan Buddhist practices transmitted by Yuthog Yönten Gönpo the Younger, the great 12th century Tibetan physician and meditation adept who is considered to be an emanation of Medicine Buddha and father of Tibetan Medicine.

The tradition includes concise and essential methods perfectly suited for busy contemporary practitioners that offer both worldly benefits including improved health and longevity for oneself and others, as well as the ultimate benefit of complete spiritual liberation.

The Yuthok Nyingthig is the main spiritual tradition connected with Sowa Rigpa (Tibetan medicine), and it contains many unique methods to heighten the intuitive, diagnostic, and healing capacities of doctors. As well as being the meditation tradition practiced within the lineage of Tibetan medicine, the Yuthok Nyingthig also has been revered by many practitioners interested in healing blessings.

In complementary sessions, Robert Thurman will turn to the teachings of HH the Fourteenth Dalai Lama on Dzogchen and the unexcelled yoga tantras’ creation and perfection stages (skyerim and dzogrim), and how they relate to the Great Seal Mahāmudra teachings of the Yuthok tradition.
