Amitabha Phowa Empowerment and Retreat

Continue your Spiritual Journey with the Buddha of Limitless Light Empowerment and Transference of Consciousness at Death

November 10-16th, 2017

Led by Retreat Master: Khenpo Jigme

Khenpo Jigme has chosen the specific date of November 6th to begin this retreat because it is a Great Wheel Day–when all spiritual practice is multiplied many fold. Also, this time is connected to Buddha Shakyamuni’s decscent to Earth from the Tushita Heavens. Additionally, the full seven days is necsessary to invoke the blessing field and open communication with the Pureland; build inner energy; clear obstructions and rest the mind in the bliss of emptiness infused with compassion.

Scholarship available for five Nights free stay at Vajra Vidya Retreat Center.

Due to the kindness of an anonymous donor, we will have a drawing for a five night all expense paid stay at the Center.

If you are interested in having your name tossed in the Hat, please email Himani by Sept. 29th. The drawing will be at noon on Sept. 30th. The gifted one will be responsible for their own travel to VVRC. Requested dates are per availability.

If you attended the Chakrasamvara Empowerment with Thrangu Rinpoche and have not yet received the Sadhana, please contact Himani.

Recent Highlights: On August 12th Khenpos Lobzang and Jigme officiated the first wedding ceremony in the Shrine Room. Jake March and Katey Sliker, long term practitioners from Boulder, took their vows in a traditional Marriage Empowerment Ceremony with 40 family members and friends sharing their intent in lives dedicated to love. The Khenpos and staff spent the entire day prepaing the setting and atmosphere. Many rose petals were thrown to increase the auspiciousness of this sacred union.

All were transported to Dakini Land.
