✨ Sh*tro Ngakso and Neydren Retreat ✨
June 11–13, 2026
Pema Osel Ling & online

Join us for Sh*tro Ngakso, a retreat centered on the One Hundred Peaceful and Wrathful Deities, with practices of purification, confession, restoration of samaya, and dedication for the deceased.

The retreat begins with the Sh*tro Empowerment on June 11 and continues with repeated Sh*tro practice sessions, Ngondro, Riwo Sangchö, tsok, self-empowerment, and the Neydren ceremony.

🌺 Sh*tro & Neydren Ceremony
The Neydren ceremony is dedicated to beings who have died and are wandering in the bardo. Names of the deceased may be submitted for inclusion in the practice, and participants may also sponsor tsok and butterlamps as offerings during the retreat.

Sh*tro practice is understood as a profound support for all present and future bardos. At the time of death, when body and mind separate, the mandala of the peaceful and wrathful deities appears. Recognizing these appearances as one’s own wisdom display is said to lead to liberation.
