Dolpo Tulku Rinpoche will begin a new cycle of Tsa Lung Tummo teachings and practices from the Nam Chö tradition this year.

On Sunday 26 October 2025 Dolpo Tulku Rinpoche will grant the Tsa Lung Tummo Empowerment, which is a prerequisite for further instruction in this cycle.

In the following years, Rinpoche will continue to introduce his students to the specific exercises and visualizations of the Nam Chö Tsa Lung cycle. These exercises are a Buddhist form of yoga, which works with the subtle energy body (Vajrabody) and is also known as Tummo, the inner heat of bliss.

To be prepared for these powerful practices and for a better understanding of the deep healing process of the Tummo exercises, it is highly recommended to attend the foregoing “Lung Jong Pranayama according to the Vajrayana Tantras” retreat with Dolpo Tulku Rinpoche from Friday October 24 – Sunday October 26 at the same location. During this retreat Dolpo Tulku Rinpoche will teach and practice simple yet profound yoga and breathing exercises (pranayama) to promote the body’s energy flow and suppleness. The Lung Jong Pranayama, developed by Dolpo Tulku Rinpoche, works with the subtle energy body (Vajrabody) on three levels: the channels (Tib. rtsa, Skt. nāḍi), winds (Tib. rlung, Skt. prāṇa), and essences (Tib. thig le, Skt. bindu). Rinpoche developed this easy-to-learn combination of different exercises to release blockages, reduce stress and let go of built-up emotions.

It can be easily implemented in everyday life and serves as preparation for the Nam Chö Tsa Lung Tummo exercises that Rinpoche will teach in the following years.
Please note that participation in a Tummo Preliminaries” online course with Dolpo Tulku Rinpoche, e.g., from Wed, October 8, to Wed, November 12, 2025 (every Wednesday at 7:30pm CET), is also a prerequisite for receiving further teachings and practices from the Nam Chö Tsa Lung Tummo cycle.
