Through Mingyur Rinpoche’s expert guidance, this program of three levels contains profound teachings and methods to uncover inherent qualities of awareness, compassion, and wisdom.
In this level, Mingyur Rinpoche will teach us how meditation can transform the way we relate to stressful situations and challenging emotions, and how to embrace all aspects of life with mindful awareness.
In this second level, Mingyur Rinpoche teaches us how to connect with our innate capacity for loving-kidness, compassion, and joyful appreciation.
In this third level, Mingyur Rinpoche helps us to awaken to our innate wisdom by investigating how things truly are. Using analytical meditation, we begin to loosen our assumptions about ourselves and the world, which leads to a joyful life and open heart.
"I personally have felt the benefits of this course to be immense, and these effects have even been noted by close family members. Already, at this early stage, the transformations have brought a freshness, lightness, and lightheartedness to living, even in the midst of much precarity. I very much look forward to continuing the practice through the next levels."

"This course has been immensely helpful to me. I feel that it has been a year of amazing growth and awareness. I’ve meditated for many years but only in this last year have I been so dedicated to my practice. It has been a lifesaver for me."

"The Joy of Living programme is transformative to bring up my true nature (Love and compassion). I have never seen such a simple yet powerful online teaching. It explains a way of living, one tiny step at a time. All I experience is peace, love and compassion. I thank the entire Tergar team and Mingyur Rinpoche for creating this online programme. I highly recommend this programme to anyone who wishes to learn meditation and sustain the practice throughout their lifetime."

"Many thanks for this online course, which I really appreciate. I knew the books of Mingyur Rinpoche, however the course is very rich (videos, exercises, forum, etc.) and I have the impression to have come closer to this Master and his teachings, to be “taken by the hand” to advance. The course is very clear, very motivating and really makes me want to invest myself. In a few words, on the videos, Mingyur Rinpoche gives clear, practical and precise teachings."

The Joy of Living program developed by Mingyur Rinpoche offers the best and most comprehensive introduction to meditation that I know of. From the conceptual underpinnings to the varieties of practice that are taught, it has something for everyone. It has my strongest endorsement."

"These meditations have been really beneficial in my ability to express love toward others, even if in small ways. And as I’ve opened up more, my ability to be happy for others or grateful for others’ freedom from suffering is slowly shifting my own worldview."
