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.

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
