CAKRASAMVARA
EMPOWERMENT and DRUPCHEN
Led by Drupon Rinchen Dorjee
July 3 to 7, 2026
(In person arrival on July 2, 2026)

We are delighted to offer the Cakrasamvara Drupchen led by Drupon Rinchen Dorjee who will bestow the Cakrasamvara empowerment, teachings and lead practice sessions during the drupchen. A drupchen includes practicing through the night with rotating sessions, which keeps the mantra going constantly.

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.

This is a profound opportunity to deepen your practice of Cakrasamvara under the guidance of Drupon Rinchen Dorjee.

On July 3, 2026 the Cakrasamvara Drupchen begins with an empowerment. Each day there will be teachings and practice sessions. The drupchen ends at 12 pm on July 7, 2026.
