Ziji Rinpoche loves to teach and write and her latest book is called 'When Surfing a Tsunami...' Ziji Rinpoche is the Dzogchen Lineage successor of Venerable Wangdor Rimpoche. Each metaphor and key instruction originate from Dzogchen teachings which are passed down from one teacher to another, like a chain of golden mountains. Wangdor Rimpoche asked Ziji Rinpoche to bring about the furtherance of Dzogchen within a contemporary global culture. Ziji Rinpoche established the Short Moments online community for mutual support in gaining familiarity with the nature of mind. Through the Short Moments app, anyone can access profound and powerful Dzogchen teachings. Find out more on http: //shortmoments.com Celine loves to draw, empower children and tell stories. When she was introduced to the nature of mind by Ziji Rinpoche, she was awestruck at the power of mind, open like the sky, always clear and wise no matter the stormy feelings. She recognized she would have loved to learn about mind as a child. She was inspired to illustrate the teachings in children's books introducing strong mind to children. Combining her training in Fine Arts (BA), Devised Theatre (MA), Dzogchen (Student of Ziji Rinpoche since 2007), and Early Years (Childminder), Celine now teaches Dzogchen for Kids, conducts book readings in schools and festivals and loves to illustrate new books at http: //shortmomentsforkids.com
'You explain ancient truths in a beautifully simple, child-friendly, humorous and engaging way. Your books are a great gift to support awareness, meditation and mindfulness' - Amanda Pope, Philosophy Specialist Teacher, 30 March 2021, Erasmus Primary School 'The books are very simple teachings on the nature of mind. They keep it simple for us and for children. They really root the child in the nature of their own mind, in innate wisdom and in warm hearted compassion and collaboration.' - Ziji Rinpoche, Interview with Lama Lena on Dzogchen for Kids, 27 Feb 2021, Replay @ Lama Lena Teachings
