Funkce zvuku v dzogčhenu – The Function of Sound in Dzogchen – retreat s Igorem Berkhinem

Igor Berkhin je dlouholetým praktikujícím dzogčhenu. Narodil se v SSSR a svou duchovní praxi zahájil v 80. letech ještě za železnou oponou. Studoval a překládal u mnoha učitelů různých kontemplativních tradic, z nichž nejvýznamnější byl Čogjal Namkhai Norbu, proslulý mistr dzogčhenu. Překládal také učení dzogčhenu od takových mistrů, jako jsou bratři Khenchen Palden Sherab a Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal, a také od učitele bonpo Nyima Dagpa Rinpočheho. Poté, co se v roce 1996 setkal se svým kořenovým učitelem, byl Igor v roce 2002 Čogjalem Namkhai Norbuem pověřen vyučováním Základní Santi Maha Sanghy, studijního a praktického programu zaměřeného na sútry, tantry a dzogčhen, který navrhl Čogjal Namkhai Norbu. Od roku 2008 je jedním ze tří starších učitelů Santi Maha Sanghy, dalšími dvěma jsou Jim Valby a zesnulý Elio Guarisco.

In Dzogchen teaching, sound is a very important phenomena. The teaching is transmitted via sound, we also use sound in almost all of our practices. We can use sound to develop awareness, clarity, and also sensation. In this short workshop, we will do several practices of the Dzogchen Community, paying attention to how we interact with sound doing it in various ways to get some practical experience and understanding. In this workshop, there will be mostly practice, sharing experience, and not so much explanation. The most important thing is personal participation in a group practice, therefore, there will be no Zoom and no recording.
