Reminder: Registration for the October 2025 Nepal retreat is open. Please register soon to ensure your accomodations.

His Eminence Namkha Drimed Rabjam Rinpoche and Dungsey Lhuntrul Dechen Gyurme Rinpoche will teach and guide students in the Drupcho practices of Vajrasattva Sh*tro. This is a practice of the Guru Vajrasattva, the embodiment of all buddha families, entitled "The Beacon of Primordial Awareness: Dispersing Darkness and Unveiling the Luminosity of Reality" which purifies the accumulations of karma, afflictive emotions, and the obscurations of all beings. The text is from His Eminence’s own pure vision and is being translated and practiced with western students for the first time.

The retreat will take place in the Rigon Tashi Choeling Monastery in the Dollu Valley in Pharping, Nepal from October 14 through October 20. The Drupcho will consist of daily teachings and practice.

We have a distorted perception of whatever it is. . .If you’re relaxed and examine things in an objective way, you’ll see that they don’t exist as they appear” ~His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
