¡Feliz final de 2024 y un mejor comienzo de 2025!


Entonces, ¿qué termina en un año, según el pensamiento budista?

Bueno, nada. Un año en una unidad de tiempo arbitraria.

“Todo lo condicionado es impermanente. Cuando uno ve esto con sabiduría, se vuelve desapasionado hacia el sufrimiento”. Dhammapada, verso 277

En cierto modo, las cosas siguen igual, sin que nadie las afecte. La gente sigue amando, luchando, viviendo y muriendo.

Pero de otra manera, como cuando un fantasma desaparece, la cosa cambia.

“Todas las cosas formadas son como un sueño, un fantasma, una gota de rocío, un destello de relámpago”. Sutra del Diamante, Capítulo 32

Este cambio se da a nivel de ilusión. Al igual que el gobierno, el país donde estás leyendo esto, el sistema educativo o las enseñanzas de Buda, este año es vacío, ilusorio y, sin embargo, puedes hablar de ello.

Como tú y como yo. “Esta existencia nuestra es tan transitoria como las nubes de otoño. Observar el nacimiento y la muerte de los seres es como contemplar los movimientos de una danza”. Sutra Lalitavistara

Por eso, teniendo presente que no somos más que una colección de fantasmas, hablando en idiomas usados por personas que ya no están hace mucho, ¡que este año ilusorio que comienza te traiga felicidad ilusoria y buenas noticias!


¡Y que pronto adquieras la determinación de ayudar a todos los seres a alcanzar las Puertas de Shambhala!

Banner Mara Roast 2025.png

Burn, Mara Burn

Yes, the time has come again.

The time when we gather to roast Mara and practice to liberate Samsara.

We liked the Portland experience so much last year that this year it's the official Mara Roast Location!

We'll be there from September 29 through October 4, doing teachings, yogas and sorceries together!

Ok, so where in Portland, OR?

Guru Prajwal's temple, near Hawthorne and Chavez.

1405 SE 40th Avenue Portland OR 97214-4406

What is going to be taught?

Ok, there is a cost, right? And what does it cover?

Yes, sadly there is a cost.

It takes money and effort to travel, translate and host, so we need to ask for your collaboration. This will cover the cost of the teachings; they're five days full of teachings you will literally not find anywhere else. 

You have to provide your food and lodgins; we will give the teachings, plus all the files and documents you need to practice.

As an aside, we will define one session to be streamed, but most of it won't. This is an encounter; we want to meet and practice together. There's plenty of teachings every month online, but this is different.

The cost is going to be on a sliding window; why? Because there's a limit to the space that we have and we need to set everything up beforehand. 

For March, the Early Bird ticket is $650 for everything.

April to July, the ticket is $750.

August and September is going to be $900. So get in early!

You can get your ticket right here.

Oh, I want to participate, but I can't afford it.

We understand. We also wanted to practice and it took time and effort. 

There's a scholarship option.

This covers two things:

1-The lodging: There's a chance to crash in the temple. The space is limited and you should bring a sleeping bag, but it's doable.

2-The teachings: There's limited teaching space, but if you want to come, we'll try to make you room.

The only thing we need to emphasize is that everything is limited. We will need to make a decision, and it will be nothing personal if we cannot grant you either or both of them. But we need to make sure that the event is viable. Please do not sign up via paypal if you selected a scholarship option until we get back to you. 

The scholarship form is here:

Mara Roast 2025 - Scholarship form

This is the form to participate of the Mara Roast via Scholarship. Please do not sign up on the Paypal link if you request scholarship until you hear from us; there's a limited space to participate and to teach, so we will have to make a divination on how many scholarship spaces there are.

Scholarship Requested

Last year, there were some cool guides and playlists...

We got you:

See you there!
