— Tranquil Abiding helps us calm the waters of the mind, allowing us to experience truth more clearly. We can learn a lot through studying the nature of the mind and reality, but we can't stop there. Tranquil Abiding helps us to see for ourselves, through stilling the mind and experiencing insight. Through connecting with others, as a compassionate act, Tonglen helps us feel how we're not separate from the rest of the ocean. This balance is important. The Tibetan scriptures speak of many pairs. In Why Bother? The definition of enlightenment is cleansing our obscurations and fully maturing our buddha qualities. Tranquil Abiding helps with the former; Tonglen with the latter. Another pair is wisdom (Tranquil Abiding) and compassion (Tonglen). Vajrayana (Tibetan Buddhism) meets us where we are, and supports us in our journey from there. So it is with Tonglen. The word Tonglen means “sending and receiving” in Tibetan.  Valeria Teles interviews Lama Tsomo — the author of “Wisdom & Compassion: Starting with Yourself — (Ancient Wisdom for Our Times Tibetan Buddhist Practice Series – Book 2).” Lama Tsomo is a spiritual teacher, author, and co-founder of Namchak Foundation, which preserves and shares Tibetan Buddhist practice in accessible, contemporary ways. She dedicates the majority of her time and resources to sharing the teachings and practices of the Namchak tradition, a branch of Tibetan Buddhism. Utilizing her psychology background, Lama Tsomo works to make it easier for Westerners to bridge contemplative practice and modern life. She is particularly passionate about reaching young people and supporting those working for positive social change. Fascinated by science from an early age, Lama Tsomo's teachings often reference the science behind meditation and the proven neurological impact. She holds an M.A. in Counseling Psychology and is the author of Why Is the Dalai Lama Always Smiling?

Please join us for a timely conversation exploring insights, tools and practices to support ourselves, our families, our work and our communities during this season of confinement and constant, confusing, uncertain change. For most of us, our worlds came to a screeching pause in March and many of us remain under constraints on our movement and interactions -- turning our homes into seeming prisons at times.  In addition to this once-in-a-century pandemic, many parts of the globe are currently plagued with fires, hurricanes and other outstanding circumstances that force people into even greater lockdown in homes that may no longer feel safe. In conversation with an expert in prison rehabilitation and a Buddhist lama, we’ll explore questions such as:  How do we remain sane through all of this?  How can we remain positive and lifted up when everything around us seems to push us down?  How does this season actually serve us?  How do we regain our freedom and liberation? Jacques Verduin is the Founding Director and Minister of Transformation of Insight-Out as well as the Founder of its GRIP (Guiding Rage into Power) Program, a best-practices, comprehensive offender accountability program.  He has a 22-year history as a subject matter expert on prison rehabilitation programming, a record of successful pioneering and sustaining programs, and has cultivated a sizable network in the field. Currently Director of Insight-Out, Mr. Verduin founded the Insight Prison Project, which under his leadership produced the Victim Offender Education program. His efforts helped birth the Prison Mindfulness Initiative, the Prison Yoga Project, the Insight Garden Project, Veterans Healing Veterans, among others. All of these organizations are actively replicating. In addition to California, he is a consultant to the US State Department, and he and his staff has traveled abroad to train professionals in Guatemala, El Salvador, Bosnia and the Netherlands. Lama Tsomo is an American lama, author, and co-founder of the Namchak Foundation and Namchak Retreat Ranch.  Born Linda Pritzker, Lama Tsomo followed a path of spiritual inquiry and study that ultimately led to her ordination as one of the few American lamas in Tibetan Buddhism. Under the tutelage of Tulku Sangak Rinpoche, international holder of the Namchak lineage, Lama Tsomo has done extensive spiritual retreats in the U.S. and abroad, and is fluent in Tibetan. Today, she is dedicated to sharing the teachings of the Namchak lineage with Western students, bringing greater happiness and meaning to life through meditation practice, community and retreat. She is especially passionate about reaching young people and supporting those working for positive social change. Her teaching has inspired American and international students, who appreciate her informal, and often humorous, style. Lama Tsomo holds an M.A. in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in Jungian studies. She is the author of three books: Why Is The Dalai Lama Always Smiling? A Westerner’s Introduction and Guide to Tibetan Buddhist Practice, The Lotus & The Rose, and The Dharma of Dogs. This conversation will be moderated by Mariette Fourmeaux, Founder and Executive Director of Brilliance Inside, a nonprofit with the mission of healing society’s cycle of violence by transforming prison from being strictly a container of violence to a creator of peace.

Lama Tsomo, born Linda Pritzker, is an American teacher in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, an author, and a philanthropist living in western Montana. Her path of spiritual inquiry and study led to her ordination as one of the few female American lamas in Tibetan Buddhism. Lama Tsomo is known for her warm, candid and humorous teaching style. Fascinated by science from an early age, she often weaves research findings into her teachings. Her studies and teaching over the years have focused on these two questions: How can a spiritual awakening improve the chances that our world will be healed? And where can we find the insights and capacities to help each of us navigate life and be authentically happy? She is particularly passionate about reaching young people and supporting those working for positive social change. Born into a Midwestern Jewish household, Lama Tsomo is an heiress to the Pritzker family fortune via Hyatt Hotels and other enterprises. She had no interest in joining any of the family businesses. As a teenager, she discovered a passion for saving the environment after a summer of exploring the wilderness areas of Glacier National Park and other regions of the American west. She came to believe that a civilization built on an ever-growing demand for material things (and the natural resources required to produce them) does not result in happiness and well-being, and is not sustainable.  She studied at Antioch University and earned a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology with a focus on Jungian analysis.  As a young woman, she left Chicago and began a life as a homesteader in Wisconsin, where she raised goats, grew the family's vegetables, and brought up three children. She practiced as a Jungian therapist, and wrote a book about the place of women and girls in western mythology. She later moved to a rural community in the mountains of western Montana. Tsomo meditated for a number of years without any particular instruction or guidance. After a period of five years where she gave up meditating, she felt a desire to return to the practice but this time with instruction and guidance. She met Gochen Tulku Sangak Rinpoche, who carries the teaching of the Nyingma path of Tibetan Buddhism, at a 10-day retreat in Santa Fe. After hearing him teach she knew she had found the teacher she was seeking. Under Rinpoche’s guidance, Tsomo completed more than three years of solitary retreats. She also learned the Tibetan language, allowing her to converse directly with her teacher, using concepts not readily expressed in English. Rinpoche spent countless hours painstakingly teaching Tsomo the methods of Tibetan Buddhism that give her experience of this life deeper meaning and joy. After she achieved proficiency in all the levels of the Nyingma path, Rinpoche ordained her a lama in his monastery in Nepal in February of 2005 and again in a ceremony in his temple in Montana the following summer. Just after he ordained her, he spoke of her responsibility to pass these teachings along. Lama Tsomo is bringing the Nyingma form of Tibetan Buddhism to interested westerners by dedicating herself to teaching. With oversight provided by Rinpoche, she is building a Buddhist retreat center in Montana called the Namchak Retreat Ranch, where people can practice in total immersion in a beautiful natural environment. She also teaches Tibetan Buddhist practice to students at beginning and intermediate levels via free e-courses and in-person retreats in California and New York. She is passionate about helping students form community around meditation in small learning and practice circles found in the U.S. and abroad.  Lama Tsomo often refers to having two inheritances. The first, her financial inheritance, she was given by her father. The second, her spiritual inheritance, she earned after years of study and retreats with Tulku Sangak Rinpoche. The two inheritances converge in the Namchak Retreat Ranch, which Rinpoche tasked her with creating. Tsomo was also a founding board member of the Ewam, a Tibetan Buddhist center located in Arlee, Montana. She is the author of the book Why Is the Dalai Lama Always Smiling?: A Westerner’s Introduction and Guide to Tibetan Buddhist Practice, which was a 2016 silver medal winner in the Independent Publishers’ Book Awards. In his foreword to the book, the Dalai Lama wrote that while Lama Tsomo outlines her personal journey into Buddhism, she continues to honor her traditional Jewish heritage.  She is co-author of The Lotus and The Rose: A Conversation Between Tibetan Buddhism and Mystical Christianity (2018) with Reverend Matthew Fox, which consists of the co-authors’ conversations exploring the essentials principles shared by their traditions and the differences that distinguish them. Lama Tsomo was also a contributor to The Dharma of Dogs: Our Best Friends as Spiritual Teachers (2017), edited by Tami Simon. Join us in conversation with this wise and generous teacher!
