  At Tilogaard Meditation School you may learn to meditate and how to apply the Buddhist view. The website has been created for this purpose and as a support for you in this quite special art, that is both simple and difficult  to do properly, naturally  and without effort. Patience and a willingness to learn is very much required. You are most welcome to visit and engage.

  On Tilogaard website's English section, there are a lot of very different papers on a variety of subjects. To start with, they were published anticipating Shamar Rinpoche's visit to Tilogaard in 2012, that never happened. For that reason, there are many papers by Shamar Rinpoche on the subject of meditation.
 
They are supplemented by a few related papers by me, Lama Tendar Olaf Hoeyer  (see the picture to the left). Since 2012 though, various developments within the Karma Kagyu tradition has unfolded and they have been reported here as well, because of a strong public interest or for some other reason. The Danish section is much more structured and have quite a lot more information and papers, though they are all in Danish. Sorry for that; I have not managed to translate it all; not yet anyway. If you use an AI to translate it, I cannot vouch for the result; Dharma subjects are not easily translated. And AI is not intelligent at all. AI is artificial though...

in Danish phonetics: Tilogor
 
 

Tilogaard Meditation School, of the Karma Kagyu Buddhist tradition, is located in the rural south of Denmark on the island of Lolland, surrounded by fields of wheat and sugar beet, while near to a forrest and the sea. The Danish Lama Tendar Olaf Hoeyer  is the resident Dharmateacher on Tilogaard, editor and web-master of the website.
 

 
 
Tilogaard Meditation  
School  
 
 

aims to present you with an old classical Buddhist craft of  meditation – and so also a classical, psychological and an informed view to apply, both during your meditation and afterwards in daily life and contemplation. Without such formal, orderly and well executed meditation, Buddhist view is mostly an interesting theory about the mind and perception and not so much else.
  But in a deep state of absorption during meditation, you may really achieve a transformation and a truly liberating experience of your own mind and body. Hereby, you may be able to gain control of your reactions to everybody and everything as the most natural event in the world. At least while you are absorped in such meditation. When the mind do recognize itself, all by itself, the inborn altruistic Bodhicitta will spontaneously unfold and encompass all of your experience. You will not know how to talk about it.
