Busuku Mexico
Dudjom Rimpoche's Trekcho Precepts

Aqua viva Monastery

The Busuku retreat is designed to familiarize those with experience of non-meditation with the nature of mind. Dzogchen is connection with the ground of being and its spontaneity.
Non-action and non-meditation are the key words and simplicity itself is the mode of being. Technically speaking we practice the 'breaking through' (trekcho) according to Dunjom Rinposhe's Razor-Sharp Sky-Iron instructions.
