Examples of changes in membership level: If you receive pointing out instructions after joining at the Introductory or Intermediate levels of membership, you can upgrade your membership level to Advanced. If you have become an active student of a Vajrayana or Dzogchen Vajrayana master you can upgrade from the Introductory level to the Intermediate.
When logging in, click the “Forgot Password” link at the bottom of the login page.
Pointing out instructions are a direct transmission from a Dzogchen or Vajrayana master to a student bestowing the blessings of the lineage and an introduction to the nature of the mind. Tsoknyi Rinpoche only gives pointing out instructions at his in-person open retreats.
Pointing out instructions are only given during in-person retreats and are never recorded.
