Cakrasamvara is the main yidam of all Kagyu lineages, and the central deity practiced in the Fivefold Path of Mahamudra of the Drikung Kagyu Lineage. Cakrasamvara is centered around using bliss and emptiness, the nature of phenonmena, to recognize and rest in our true nature or Buddha essence.

We are delighted to offer an in-person Cakrasamvara Drupcho followed by an 18 day Cakrasamvara Practice Retreat Intensive led by Drupon Rinchen Dorjee Rinpoche.

This is a profound opportunity to deepen your practice of Cakrasamvara under the guidance of Drupon Rinchen Dorjee Rinpoche. He is a master teacher of the Cakrasamvara practice and three-year retreat master at the Garchen Institute.

On July 2 the Cakrasamvara drupcho begins with an empowerment. Each day there will be teachings and practice sessions. The drupcho ends on July 9 and preparations for the retreat begins on July 10. For the Practice Retreat Intensive, participants will need to pay for their food orders, which staff will deliver during the retreat, and participants will prepare their own meals during the retreat. The practice retreat will begin on July 11.

This Cakrasamvara intensive retreat is a unique combination of solitary and group practice. The retreat is entirely silent except for the regular question and answer sessions with the retreat master.

The rare conditions of this retreat will help deepen your practice of Cakrasamvara under the guidance of such a precious teacher!

Please note, attendance of the drupcho is required in order to attend the Cakrasamvara Practice Retreat Intensive. Since accommodations are limited priority will first be given to those attending both the drupcho and practice retreat intensive.

Accepting applications until June 15th
