Khenpo Ngawang Dhamchoe is the Founder and Spiritual Director of Drogmi Buddhist Institute in Sydney, Australia. He is one of the most knowledgeable and respected teachers of Tibetan Buddhism in Australia.
Over two sessions, Khenpo Ngawang Dhamchoe will offer an introduction to The Five Aggregates or The Five Skandha’s (in Sanskrit), which are regarded as a deconstruction of the constituent factors that create the apparent experience of the ‘self’ as it is experienced in the world. The Five Skandha’s are often referred to as psychophysical constituents or heaps, in the sense that they are simply a collection of parts without any central core. The five categories of The Skandha’s are: Form, Feeling, Perception, Mental Formations & Consciousness. In traditional Buddhist treatise’s, The Five Aggregates are studied and contemplated to both refute the existence of an 'independent ‘self’ and to identify the complex layers that obscure our true nature.
