Thirty-Five Day Retreat on the Tukdrup Barché Kunsel at Samye Bali

 

Dear Dharma Friend, A Thirty-Five Day Retreat on the Tukdrup Barché Kunsel with Drupla Opak will take place at Samye Hermitage Bali from September 22 – October 26, 2024. For those dedicated to Guru Padmasambhava's heart practice—Tukdrup Barché Kunsel (Dispeller of All Obstacles)—the Thirty-Five Day Retreat is highly regarded for its ability to invoke the deep blessings of this tradition. Following the guidance of Phakchok Rinpoche, Drupla Opak will lead a  group of practitioners through this series of practices, enabling participants to fully engage with the essential aspects of the Vajrayana, and especially the Tukdrup Barché Kunsel. Program Details This retreat is for those who already received the empowerments and transmission for the Tukdrup Barché Kunsel from any authentic lineage master, and who have some familiarity with Vajrayana practice in general, and the Trinlé Nyingpo sadhana in particular. It is especially appropriate for those who have already diligently engaged in the four foundations (ngöndro) practice, either in individual or group settings, and who have experience in the most essential of Guru Padmasabhava’s sadhanas from this cycle, The Concise Manual for Daily Practice. Samye Institute Patrons can prepare well for this retreat by studying the resources available in the Path of Realization support materials. Further details to be announced when registration opens.
