Course Materials
This page provides all of the course materials that we have available for the Diamond Mountain fall term for the 2005/2006 school year.
| Table of contents |
Tantra IV
Access to this material is restricted only to those who are physically present at the Tantra IV teachings at DMU during the fall term; if you receive this teaching as a DMU extension course, you and your teacher are responsible for making recordings to which you can refer in the future.
Please be aware that if you are teaching this class, you are forbidden by your Lama to give your students copies of this audio. Because of this, it is very important that you or your students arrange to make recordings of the teachings that you give to them, so that they will have something to refer to later. Don't think it's egotistical to record what you teach - it's all they will have other than their notes.
To register for access to the audio here, please visit the registration page (https://www.dmes.org/registrar/newUser.php). You only need to register once. Registration just creates a username and password for the web site - in order to access the material you need to be on the access list.
