APRENDIZAJE Y PROGRESO

Plan de estudios para la práctica y el estudio

Bodhi Path ofrece un plan de estudios para la práctica y el estudio de la meditación que tiene sus raíces en las auténticas enseñanzas del dharma y se adapta a las necesidades y condiciones de los practicantes del dharma de hoy en día.

El currículo del Camino Bodhi se basa en el Entrenamiento de los Siete Puntos de la Mente (en tibetano: Lojong), un sistema profundo de prácticas contemplativas que aporta atención plena, conciencia y perspicacia a nuestras experiencias cotidianas, tanto dentro como fuera del cojín de meditación.

Estas enseñanzas han sido preservadas por un linaje ininterrumpido desde la época de Buda y se presentan en todos los centros del Camino Bodhi, junto con prácticas de apoyo y temas de estudio, según un enfoque compilado por el 14º Shamarpa, Mipham Chokyi Lodro.

Curriculum Development

Shamar Rinpoche spent decades considering how best to benefit modern-day practitioners. He refined his teachings in the West over many years,  and the Bodhi Path community is grateful to have received his personal guidance during that time.

His system of Practice and Study, based on the profound teachings of Lojong, provides a legacy of rigorous, practical teachings that Rinpoche believed will lead the practitioner to genuine spiritual development.

En Práctica y Estudio pages, as well as the Books and Resources section, provide support for Shamar Rinpoche’s Bodhi Path legacy of teachings.

Shamar Rinpoche formed the first Bodhi Path Center in 1996 in the United States. In 2004, Shamar Rinpoche gave an early talk for a European audience in Remetschwiel, Germany, in which he provided an overview of plans for what could be learned at Bodhi Path centers. In later years, he further refined his program. Starting in 2007, Shamar Rinpoche provided a sequence of annual teaching programs in the US & Europe, during which he transmitted the basis of what became three important manuals for his students:

  • Despertar sin límites: El corazón de la meditación budista (2013, Bird of Paradise Press)
  • The Path to Awakening: How Buddhism’s Seven Points of Mind Training Can Lead You to a Life of Enlightenment and Happiness (2013, Delphinium Books distributed by Harper Collins)
  • Boundless Wisdom: A Mahamudra Practice Manual (2018, Bird of Paradise Press)

Shamar Rinpoche gave direct advice on how to study sections from these manuals and in what sequence, which is included in the introduction of Sabiduría sin límites. All three manuals can be found in Books and Resources.

Bodhi Path is in an ongoing process of collecting Shamar Rinpoche’s recorded teachings in which he taught this material at Bodhi Path centers, and will be adding them over time to our searchable teachings library.
