Chödpa Lama Rinpoche is the spiritual director of the Machig Ling association and is also the inspiration behind this project. Our dear Rinpoche devotes his time to accompanying and supporting many people through his quality as an authentic Buddhist teacher. Rinpoche has been traveling the West for over 20 years.

JEAN-PHILIPPE
Meditation Instructor

With 30 years of practice alongside traditional masters and having completed a three-year Buddhist retreat, Jean-Philippe Gillot, a disciple of Chopa Lama Rinpoche, shares a vibrant and embodied approach to meditation, which he considers an art of emptiness, presence, and inner freedom.

In his view, meditation is not about “doing” something, but about becoming familiar with the moment, until attention becomes natural, fluid, and silent. It is in this profound ease, this unconditional acceptance of life as it is, that true meditation is born.

DENIS
Meditation & Yoga Instructor

Denis is co-founder of the Mindfulness Center in Perpignan and the Machig Ling Buddhist Center in Rivel. He has been walking the path of Tibetan Buddhist wisdom for over twenty years, closely guided by his teacher, Chödpa Lama Rinpoche.

It was during a six-year Buddhist retreat that an understanding of the Dharma – the law of phenomena – became deeply rooted in him, permanently imprinting the power of presence, compassion and inner transformation.
