This is a special retreat under special circumstances; a single moment in history. With Rinpoche’s passing just a few months ago, we will gather to reflect, explore and celebrate over thirty years of teachings and the beneficial impact they have on us and our lives.

The focus for this retreat will be on some of Rinpoche’s best teachings, including teachings given to the Australian sangha. It aims at building a clearer understanding of Rinpoche’s unique approach and the lineage he represented.

This retreat will capture the diverse skilful means Rinpoche employed to help us understand the profound truth of the Dharma and over the week, map out the path that we can continue following together. It will be an opportunity to connect with the spirit and atmosphere of the nature of mind that Rinpoche strongly created.

This retreat will rekindle the spirit in older students and will help newer, interested students to understand our extraordinary lineage.

This retreat is the first of a program of national events hosted by Rigpa Australia in 2020 that will be held at a variety of venues, including the National Centre in Sydney, other city centres, Blueys House and online. We are fortunate to be hosting teachings and practice events with a number of visiting Tibetan lamas and Western Buddhist teachers, with topics ranging from meditation to Vajrayana practices. Our city centre programs offer year-long and short courses with video teachings from leading teachers. Further details will be available from the Rigpa Australia website and regular emails to the sangha
