Unlocking the Wisdom of the Ganges Mahamudra with Jhampa Shaneman (Session 4) - Video

The Ganges Mahamudra is traditionally attributed to the great 12th-century Tibetan yogi and poet, Tilopa, who is considered one of the founding figures of the Kagyu lineage. Tilopa received these teachings directly from Vajradhara, the primordial Buddha, according to tradition. Thus, the text serves as a foundational scripture that has been passed down through generations of Kagyu masters and remains highly revered to this day.

The text delves into profound spiritual and philosophical concepts, including the nature of mind, the illusion of duality, and the path to enlightenment. It offers a thorough understanding of Mahamudra (“The Great Seal”), a state of direct realization of the nature of reality. Through poetic yet pointed verses, the Ganges Mahamudra outlines the view, meditation, and action that lead to this realization.

This course aims to guide students through the fundamental principles, meditative practices, and transformative insights of Mahamudra, with special emphasis on the Ganges Mahamudra text. Rooted in ancient wisdom, yet extraordinarily relevant for the modern seeker, this course is designed to help you unlock the deepest dimensions of the mind.
