From May 13 to 16, 2024, His Eminence Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, the life pillar of the Practice Lineage's teachings and a torch that dispels the darkness from beings' minds in these times of degeneration, transmitted the first year of the "Discovering the Buddha Within" program, which was designed by Guru Vajradhara His Holiness the 12th Chamgon Kenting Tai Situpa.

Rinpoche taught the first level of this transmission, titled "Inner Peace," at Palpung Sherabling Monastic College to the monastic seat's tulkus, lamas, and the entire monastic community. This year's program included topics such as shamatha meditation with the support of breathing and mental recitation, the practices of the four foundations of awareness based on their distinctive as well as general characteristics, the four noble truths, and taking refuge.

Rinpoche taught all these topics taught in a clear and comprehensible manner. First, he introduced their various aspects, such as view, meditation, and conduct, supporting that with stories and examples. He then clarified the meaning by answering questions, holding discussions, and sharing experiences, and he deepened understanding through guided meditations.
