TIBETAN BUDDHIST MASTER TO VISIT SARASOTA: 

Tibetan Buddhist master Anyen Rinpoche will spend the first weekend of December in Sarasota. On the evening of Friday Dec 1, he will offer a traditional, powerful blessing that has traditionally been used to cure ailments and dispel obstacles to life and health, alongside a short lecture. The event promises to be an enlightening experience for all attendees, with Lama Anyen Rinpoche sharing his wisdom and insights on Tibetan Buddhism. 
A separate weekend program will follow, featuring a day and a half of meditation instruction and practice, teachings on facing suffering, aging, illness with patience and courage, and gentle yoga. Anyen Rinpoche will also perform a Saving Lives ceremony, or “Tsetar”, a traditional meritorious practice, which last year saved the lives of 10,000 shrimp destined to be used as bait. 

Anyen Rinpoche is a highly respected spiritual teacher and scholar with a deep and profound understanding of Tibetan Buddhism. Born in Tibet, he has dedicated his life to the study and practice of Buddhist teachings. He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience  to his teachings, along with humor and a profound understanding of our Western culture.

Please register ahead of time for both events at www.phowafoundation.org/upcomingprograms or contact kayla@orygenkhamdroling.org 

About Anyen Rinpoche:   Anyen Rinpoche is an esteemed teacher in the Longchen Nyingthik lineage of Nyingma Tibetan Buddhism. He was recognized as a reincarnated master, or tulku, when he was three days old. Raised in a monastic environment in rural Tibet, Rinpoche received extensive training in all aspects of Buddhist study and practice, and became a highly trained scholar, or “Khenpo”. In particular he spent 18 years living with his root teacher, continually receiving the teachings of the Nyingma lineage. 

Anyen Rinpoche has been living in Colorado for nearly 20 years with his wife Allison Choying Zangmo, who is his closest student, co-author of their many books, and English translator for technical teachings. Anyen Rinpoche’s organization, Orgyen Khamdroling, has its main center in Denver, CO, and a sister center in Montreal. Anyen Rinpoche teaches all over the United States, Mexico and Canada, and has students from all over the world. 

Anyen Rinpoche is the author of several books, including "The Tibetan Yoga of Breath: Breathing Practices for Healing the Body and Cultivating Wisdom," and "Dying with Confidence: A Tibetan Buddhist Guide to Preparing for Death." His publications have been well-received worldwide, and they offer valuable insights into the practice of Tibetan Buddhism and mindfulness. He is known for weaving humor and levity into serious teachings, and making traditional topics accessible for the modern spiritual seeker.

"Interwoven: Women’s Lives Written in Thread" highlights needlework produced by young women in New England and specifically the extraordinary collection of samplers at the Concord Museum. Featuring 30 samplers sewn in the early 1700s to mid-1800s, the exhibition explores how young women created records of their own lives and experiences, written in thread.

"Interwoven: Women's Lives Written in Thread" explores the history of needlework and embroidery, its importance as an art form, and its significance to women in the 18th and 19th centuries. Intended to showcase young women’s accomplishments, the samplers also communicate details of their lives and education, their communities, and their families. The exhibition provides a unique view into their private lives. For most of these young women, their samplers are the only objects that survive from their lives. Many of the samplers have never been displayed before.

Learn about the education of privileged young women in the early republic and understand how wealth and enslaved labor enabled them to pursue decorative arts. Explore the materials used in constructing samplers, such as linens, dyes and silk, and how and where these materials were produced. View samplers that demonstrate how women recorded family history and the loss of loved ones through needlework. Understand how they incorporated the importance of community and a strong sense of place in their samplers.

Exhibition sponsored by The Coby Foundation.

View an extraordinary collection of samplers produced by young women in New England in the early 1700s to mid-1800s and learn the stories of the young women who created them.
