Becoming Yeshe Tsogyal- Join Us!

Becoming Yeshe Tsogyal: Dakini Foundation and Accomplishment Practice from the Luminous Heart Essence (Osel Nyingthig)

Friday, April 30 – Sunday, May 9th

We, like many of you, have been discovering new depths to this practice. This retreat brings us together to further the path of this exquisite practice. Our purpose is to deepen understanding of what Rinpoche has taught and pour this deeply into our being.

The retreat begins with 3 days of deepened reflection through teaching the Dakini Foundation and Accomplishment Practice. It will include supportive practices like Jigme Lingpa’s pith instructions and Rinpoche’s Lotus Dance.

We then commence upon 5 days of formal practice – Drub Cho. This will include both collective and individual practice. Individual meetings with ongoing students will be scheduled in order of retreat sign up.

Ad.zom Rinpoche has emphasized the importance of closing together after a deep retreat. We ask you to join us on Sunday May 9 for our final session and a closing Brunch/Tshog.

Our retreat is open to the following students:

  • Any student who has received the Yeshe Tsogyal Dakini Foundational Practices from Lama Rigzin Drolma.
  • Students who take our online Cycles 2018 initial retreat on Yeshe Tsogyal prior to April 15, 2021. (Reach out to [email protected] if you are interested).
  • Students who received this practice from Lama Tsultrim or Tulku Osel Dorje.

May all be auspicious!
