Lion-faced Dakini Retreat 2023

Lion-faced Dakini Retreat 2023

Friday 6th – Sunday 8th October, 2023

Join us for this three-day retreat in-person at Padmasambhava Peace Institute with Tromge Jigme Rinpoche, or online (Youtube) if you have attended this retreat in the past. Full-time participation is NOT required for those who have previously done the 3-day retreat.

IMPORTANT: This practice lineage is NOT the same as the short Lion-faced Dakini done as daily practice in Chagdud Gonpa centers. Empowerment for this particular Lion-Faced Dakini practice is required. If you do not have the empowerment and cannot join the sangha in-person at PPI, you will not be able to participate.

Retreat will begin at 9:30am Friday and finish around 5:00pm Sunday afternoon. 

This is a profound practice for dispelling obstacles and swiftly accomplishing the realization of intrinsic awareness, composed by His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche from a treasure of his previous incarnation, Dudjom Lingpa. Jigme Rinpoche received this practice directly from H.H. Dudjom Rinpoche, so the lineage is very short and powerful. This is a precious opportunity for practitioners of all levels. The text for this particular practice is very short, so doing the intensive retreat provides an excellent basis for easily continuing this practice regularly at home.
