About the Immersion

What inspired Rinpoche to write Stainless Prajna?
In this 9-month immersion course, we will explore Mingyur Rinpoche’s brand-new text Stainless Prajna: Meditation Manual on the Treasury of Abhidharma.

In this text, Mingyur Rinpoche brings the otherwise very technical teachings of Abhidharma from the cognitive level into the experiential arena. Rinpoche teaches us how we can apply the Abhidharma teachings in our meditation practice and how to make them relevant in our day-to-day lives.

Mingyur Rinpoche teaches the key instructions for practicing the 25 meditations presented in his meditation manual, line by line

As we go through life, we accumulate layers of ideas about who we are and what we’re capable of achieving. As these layers accumulate, we tend to become increasingly rigid in our identification with certain views about ourselves and the world around us. Gradually, we lose our connection to the basic openness, clarity, and love that is the essence of our being.
— Tsoknyi Rinpoche

Frequently Asked Questions

This seems like too much for me . . . How much time will it take?

Don’t worry, you will only need about one hour to complete each lesson, and you can take the course at your pace.

Where can I purchase Stainless Prajna?

Stainless Prajna: Meditation Manual on the Treasury of Abhidharma is not yet published. The English translation is expected to be completed next year. A draft translation is provided to all Vajrayana Online members as part of the course materials.

Keep in mind that this is a traditional Buddhist meditation manual, not a typical book. Reading alone is not enough to truly understand it — the best approach is to learn directly from Mingyur Rinpoche, Tergar lamas, and Tergar guides throughout the Buddhist Psychology Immersion. During the course, you will receive teachings and practical guidance to explore each chapter and meditation in the text.

Is it possible to begin the immersion after it has already started?

Yes! You can join anytime and access all the material. You won't miss anything.

Who can take this course?

There are no prerequisites for this course. It is appropriate for practitioners of all levels.

I'm already practicing the Joy of Living/the Path of Liberation. How can I integrate this course into my practice?

Mingyur Rinpoche’s teachings make it easy to integrate the Abhidharma view into the practices you already do. Your daily practice will be enriched, and there’s no need to accumulate additional meditations from Stainless Prajna. There is no extra homework!
