Longchen Path of Training

The Indestructible Heart Essence

The Indestructible Heart Essence (IHE) is the name for our path of training. It comprises a number of distinct programmes and is designed to take you from your very first steps on the path of awakening through to a complete understanding of awakening itself.

We run a variety of courses, classes, and retreats throughout the year. You can view information on some of our local communities here: https://www.longchenfoundation.org/pof/. Many of these are open to everyone, whether a beginner in meditation or a more experienced practitioner who may be a newcomer to this particular approach.

Later programmes are open only to those who have completed earlier programmes and taken any relevant commitments. There are a number of ways to begin your training with us such as public talks with Rigdzin Shikpo or the Lion’s Roar, and they should give you the time and space to discover if this path is the right one for you.
