SUMMARY:Yamantaka Sadhana Practice
DESCRIPTION:Dieter Spielkamp\, one of Rinpoche’s senior Australian students (who recently completed a 3 year Yamantaka retreat) goes through the Yamantaka sadhana each week on the following days and times.  Please note these times are Brisbane\, Australia times. You will need to check carefully what time this is in your local timezone.  Please also note that Australia is one day ahead of timezones in Canada and the USA. So when Dieter says he is teaching on Saturdays\, this is Friday in Canada. Timeanddate.com is a useful website where you can check what time it is in different countries\, and compare with your own. Please note that while Brisbane does not go onto Daylight Savings time (many of the other Australian States do go onto Daylight Savings in Spring)\, the Daylight Savings adjustments in your local area will change your local start times for the following sessions. So please check carefully. \n\n\n\nYamantaka Long Sadhana practice: once a month –  on the first Saturday of each month at 8:00 am Brisbane\, Australia time. Session time: 2 hours \n\n\n\nYamantaka Long Sadhana: a weekly practice each Friday 5:00 am Brisbane\, Australia time.  Session time: 2 Hours \n\n\n\nYamantaka Short Sadhana A weekly practice of the Short Yamantaka Sadhana every Wednesday at 4:30 p.m. Brisbane\, Australia time.
