Cancelled, Live Webcast: Garland of Jewels (Rinchen Trengwa) Part I: Machig Labdrön’s Living Oral Lineage of Chöd

We are pleased to announce that we will offer online access to the Rinchen Trengwa (Garland of Jewels) retreat through video streaming to those who have received the Rinchen Trengwa Empowerment in Bhutan or elsewhere. The retreat will take place at Tara Mandala with Drubpön Lama Karma on April 21-May 6, 2018. Those who do not already have the empowerment must attend in person.

This retreat marks the landing of Machig Labdrön’s Oral Lineage (Kama) at Tara Mandala. Up until now, we have had Treasure (Terma) teachings only (Dzinpa Rangdröl, NNR Chöd, Khandro Gegyang, etc.). This means we will be receiving the actual historical lineage of Machig Labdrön. This comes to us through Rangjung Dorje the third Karmapa, Lama Tsultrim’s root lama who was the first to codify Machig’s teachings.

This is a very important moment in our history and for this reason, we have worked hard to make this retreat available over live stream. Usually, this practice cycle is taught in a one month long retreat format, but for our modern times and work/family schedules, we are offering it in two two-week retreats in 2018:

Rinchen Trengwa Part One: April 21 – May 6, 2018

Rinchen Trengwa Part Two: December 7 – 22, 2018

This registration is only for Part I.

Both retreats take place at Tara Mandala Retreat Center.

THERE ARE PRE-REQUISITES FOR ONLINE STREAMING:

You must have received the Rinchen Trengwa Empowerment in person if you wish to attend the teachings online. If you have not received the empowerment, you need to attend in person at Tara Mandala.

Teacher Dana of $240-$280.

Hope you can make it in person or virtually!
