Tibetan Adepts: Introduction to Vajra Yoga with Dr. Nida Chenagtsang & Robert A.F. Thurman | Episode Eight
In this episode Dr. Nida Chenagtsang & Robert Thurman sit down for an in-depth exploration of Vajra Yoga, the philosophical and experiential interface between Hatha, Raja, and Bhakti Yogas and Indo-Tibetan Vajrayana traditions being explored by Tibet House US | Menla, friends at The Yoga Space Portland and at Pure Land Farms Topanga, through online and in-person gatherings so far held primarily at Menla Retreat and Dewa Spa in Phoenicia, NY and at Blue Spirit Retreat in Costa Rica.
Inspired by His Holiness the Dalai Lamas's "Fourth Aim in Life," to restore to ancient Indian Inner Science its long-lost Sanskrit Buddhist Inner Science partner, the Vajra Yoga intensives explore, intellectually and experientially, new discoveries about the common origins and philosophical and practical relationships between Indo-Tibetan Vajrayana and Indian Hatha, Raja, and Bhakti Yogas, which for a thousand years have been misperceived as separate streams of teachings and practices.
Recorded during "Tibetan Adepts and the Dzogchen, Mahamudra & Unexcelled Yoga Connection" at Pure Land Farms in Topanga, California Spring 2022
