From May 29th-31st, join us in an online meditation retreat led by Pema Khandro. We will also host special guest teacher Drupon Rinchen Dorjee Rinpoche who will bestow the Vajrayogini empowerment. The weekend will focus on a Buddhist meditation retreat in your own home, through an online retreat format.
This retreat celebrates the installment of the Vajrayogini shrine at Dakini Mountain, a pilgrimage site for Vajrayogini in the Lake Tahoe National Forest of Northern California, founded by Pema Khandro. Vajrayogini is regarded as the essence of all buddhas, venerated by every sect of Tibetan Buddhism and venerated by Buddhists (and Hindus) all over the world. Vajrayogini is the symbol of the freedom and power of intrinsic wisdom and the enlightened feminine wisdom that severs suffering at its root.
Chod is a meditation method through meeting fear and neurosis with compassion and skill.
This is a Tibetan meditation which is a potent, dynamic practice for cutting through fear and facing death. It is a practice of healing through ultimate compassion. The practice is the Dzogchen Chod, known as Khandro Geykyang, the Laugher of the Dakinis, the concise version. Rinpoche will lead the practice and discuss its meaning. This has been a monthly practice in Virginia for the last two years on Dakini Day, but in-person Chod practices are cancelled and Pema Khandro Rinpoche will now be offering Chod practice online for the first time, in order to support Vajrayana practitioners during the worldwide pandemic.
