Stillpoint will host Dzogchen meditation master Orgyen Chowang Rinpoche for a special two-day visit on July 29 and 30.
Rinpoche’s talk will focus on the newly released “Tibetan Book of Success: A Guide to Relationships, Leadership, Communication, and Happiness,” a collection of classical Tibetan literature offering practical guidance for living with greater purpose, integrity, and fulfillment.
Drawn from a long tradition of secular Tibetan teachings on how to live a good life, “The Tibetan Book of Success” presents four newly translated texts from revered Tibetan masters, offering clear and succinct guidance for cultivating happiness, success, harmonious relationships, and strong communities. The teachings presented in the book emphasize universal principles and values such as effective communication, integrity, decency, fairness, reliability, respect, and generosity as the foundation for a meaningful and fulfilling life.
Orgyen Chowang Rinpoche is a meditation master in the Dzogchen lineage of the Buddhist tradition, and the founder and spiritual director of the Pristine Mind Foundation. Known for his accessible, passionate, and joyful approach to personal transformation, he offers practical methods for living with greater clarity, awareness, and purpose. He leads teachings and retreats in the San Francisco Bay Area and internationally, has been a lecturer at Stanford University, and is the author of “Our Pristine Mind: A Practical Guide to Unconditional Happiness, from Foundation to Summit: A Guide to Ngöndro and the Dzogchen Path,” as well as the newly released “Tibetan Book of Success.”
