Roxy Broadbent
About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Roxanne (Roxy), a retired public school educator, lives in Charlottesville, VA with her husband, her dearest dharma protector. Her first retreat was Lama Willa’s 2007 Green Tara intensive prior to the founding of NDF. She has been studying with Lama Willa ever since, participating in the first Margha Program introduced by Lama Willa in 2009. Through Lama Willa, Roxy connected with Brendan Kennedy, her other main teacher.
The Margha teachings have been foundational teachings that have served Roxy well, on and off the cushion, since first being introduced to them and continuing through the Vajrayana and Dzogchen practices. Both the teachings of Natural Awareness and Bodhicitta provide powerful and accessible skillful means to become more aware of habitual patterns of action, thought, and emotions which obscure our true nature and thus keep one trapped in conscious and unconscious suffering. The Margha teachings and practices enable us to come into more positive relationships with all parts of ourselves, which in turn fosters more positive relationships with so-called others.
