Rewild Your
Practice.
Welcome to Bodhisavage! An online sangha with Lama Tasha Schumann, rooted in the nature-of-mind practices of Dzogchen and Mahamudra.
Here we sit, move, dream, and play with the raw creativity of awareness right in the thick of things.
Wild as in embodied, elemental, awake.
Who's It For?
This is for people who come alive at the big, wild questions.
People who want meditation, movement, and inquiry that reveal the nature of awareness itself.
And who want to turn all of life -- waking, dreaming, dying, dancing -- into a path of awakening.
It's for noobs and ngakpas and witches and dharma bums. Anyone who sits and wonders:
- Who or what am I?
- What is awareness?
- How do I tap into the natural play and spontaneity of being alive?
- What does it actually mean to be free?
This is the path of the mahasiddhas, the householders and wandering yogis who took awakening into their own hands and turned the muck of everyday life into powerful practice. If that's you, you're a Bodhisavage.
What happens here
As a community member, you get to help shape this space and the offerings in it.
If it makes practice richer, more embodied, more true, and more fun, there's a place for it here 🙂
Why I made
this space
I'm an artist and Buddhist lama from a long lineage of yogis who practiced wherever they found themselves. For some it was the mountains of Tibet, the charnel grounds of Varanasi, or the caves of Tso Pema. Mine is here: the streets of Toronto and the wildernesses I tend to wander off into.
These lineages are full of tools and teachings that point to a single radical claim: you don't need to be a special person in a special place to wake up. With a little motivation, a few good teachers, and some like-minded friends, it can happen wherever you are, whoever you are.
No one can keep you from the clarity already present in your own mind.
So Bodhisavage is my cave. It's not a monastery or a mountain hermitage. It's a place for urban yogis like me to learn, practice, and wake up together. Somewhere to go deep without going it alone.
