DESCRIPTION:Main retreat: 25 July – 4 August 2026 Arrival on 24 July\nShort option – Shyönnu Retreat: 31 July – 4 August 2026 Arrival on 30 July \nIn a world that often encourages us to hold on\, compare and protect ourselves\, another movement is possible: to open\, to share and to trust.

It is the gateway to a life of greater connection\, warmth and ease. \nThis retreat invites young adults to explore generosity as a living practice through meditation\, reflection\, dialogue and shared experience. Together\, we will discover how the simple gesture of opening the hand can also open the heart.

SUMMARY:Awakening Wisdom and Love through the Master’s Blessing
DESCRIPTION:Teachings and Empowerments on the Transformative Path of Buddhism\nwith Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche \nMain event: 9-13 September\nWith the 3-day practice extension: 9-16 September \nThis gathering with Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche is a unique opportunity to connect to the unbroken living lineage of Tibetan Buddhism coming from the Buddha to Guru Rinpoche and the lineage masters to us. We can tap into its extraordinary vision of the flawlessly radiant and sky-like nature of our mind and heart. \nAs spiritual heir of the great Kyabjé Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche\, Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche offers teachings and transmissions that invite us to gently explore and practise Vajrayana together as a community. All this supported by experienced Rigpa practitioners and teachers\, in a beautiful retreat environment. \nWhat We’ll Explore\nAt the heart of this event are Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche’s teachings on Guru Rinpoche\, regarded not simply as the person who brought the Buddha’s teachings to Tibet\, but as the embodiment of the wisdom and compassion of all the buddhas and the ultimate reminder of our own buddha potential. The teachings show that by invoking the blessings of Guru Rinpoche\, we are able to open our mind and heart beyond their ordinary limitations—this is seen as the essence of the Vajrayana path. \nIn this context\, “blessing” points to something experiential: the way that teachings\, practices\, and the loving and profound atmosphere of realization created by the spiritual masters can inspire and reawaken something within us\, which\, like the sky momentarily covered by the clouds\, is always there. \nRunning through this introduction to the path of Vajrayana is the theme of devotion—understood here not as blind faith\, but as a skillful way of revealing our innate wisdom. In a fragmented and distracted world\, this quality of trust and inner connection can become a genuine source of protection and serenity. \nWhat the programme includes (9-13 September):\n\nTeachings and blessing empowerments bestowed by Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche\nGuided meditation and group practices\nRare films and archival footage of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche\nTime for questions\, reflection\, and sharing as a community\n\nIn particular\, Rabjam Rinpoche will give: \n\nTeachings on The Quintessence of the Profound Path: A Concise Guide to the Stages of Visualization for the Guru Yoga of the Seven-Line Supplication\, A Shower of Blessings. This is a detailed guide to Mipham Rinpoche’s Shower of Blessings\, a famous guru yoga practice based on the Seven-Line Prayer to Guru Rinpoche. The text is freely available here\nTeachings on selected poems of Heart Advice by Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche\, covering different aspects of the spiritual path\nBlessing empowerments\, which are planned to include Guru Rinpoche\, Orgyen Menla (Guru Rinpoche of Medicine)\, Green Tara and a long-life blessing (final programme to be confirmed).\n\nA 3-day extension led by Rigpa teachers and practice holders (14-16 September):\nFor those who wish to take more time to deepen their practice\, this extension will create space to further integrate the teachings that Rabjam Rinpoche has just given. We will gather several times a day to practise the Shower of Blessings guru yoga as a community. We will ‘accumulate’ the Seven-Line Prayer to Guru Rinpoche and dedicate our practice and pray strongly for all those affected by war\, environmental changes\, and anyone enduring hardship and loss across our world. \nThis is an ideal opportunity for Ngöndro students accumulating the Seven-Line Prayer. \nWho This Event Is For\nNo prior experience with Tibetan Buddhism is required—only an open mind and a genuine interest in exploring these teachings and this living tradition. \nAs Rinpoche will teach on the Seven-Line Prayer and guru yoga\, the event is especially beneficial for students practising the Vajrayana Preliminaries (Ngöndro) and Vajrayana practices. \nShechen Rabjam Rinpoche\nRinpoche is one of the most eminent Tibetan Buddhist Masters in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. Grandson and spiritual heir of the great Kyabjé Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche (1910-1991)\, he is notably the combined emanation of the three main lamas from Shechen Monastery* who had all perished in Chinese prisons in the early sixties—the previous Shechen Rabjam\, Shechen Kongtrul and Shechen Gyaltsap\, Gyurme Pema Dorje. \nDilgo Khyentse Rinpoche was regarded by many as one of the greatest Dzogchen masters of the twentieth century\, and the very embodiment of Padmasambhava. It is Khyentse Rinpoche’s profound and rich teachings of the ancient Nyingma lineage that Rabjam Rinpoche has dedicated his life to transmitting. In his presence and through his teachings and transmissions\, the presence and blessings of Dilgo Khyentse are palpable and vividly present. \nRinpoche is greatly loved and appreciated everywhere on account of his generosity\, his modern approach and his warm and endearing presence. The Rigpa community holds him especially close to their heart\, deeply grateful for his constant kindness and guidance. \n*Shechen Monastery is one of the Six “Mother” Nyingma Monasteries of Tibet

SUMMARY:Finding Unshakeable Certainty
DESCRIPTION:DZOGCHEN BEARA: Weekend Teachings with Khenpo Tashi \nHighlights from the Beacon of Certainty by Mipham Rinpoche \nWhat is our practice actually built on? \nMany of us have spent years on the path: meditating\, deepening compassion\, engaging in Vajrayana practice\, receiving profound teachings that have inspired and transformed us. Yet at a certain point\, questions like this begin to arise. What are we truly recognizing in meditation? How do we distinguish genuine understanding from concepts\, experiences\, or passing states? \nThe great masters of the Nyingma tradition understood that these questions cannot be answered through faith alone. They require investigation\, reflection\, and a View that becomes clear through our own experience. \nFor these teachings\, Khenpo Tashi draws on selected highlights from The Beacon of Certainty by Mipham Rinpoche\, a profound text of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. Structured around essential questions of view and meditation\, the text guides practitioners with remarkable precision through the relationship between appearance and emptiness\, analysis and direct experience\, understanding and realization. \nDeeply grounded in the lineage of Longchenpa and Mipham Rinpoche\, Khenpo Tashi has a rare ability to make these teachings feel immediate and alive\, revealing how they relate directly to our own path and experience. \nThese teachings are open to all practitioners with a grounding in meditation and Lojong. \nThe retreat\, held in the new Dzogchen Beara temple\, will include periods of silence including during tea breaks and some meal times. \nThese teachings will be offered in Tibetan with live English translation by Rigpa Senior Teacher Damien van Effenterre.

SUMMARY:Seeing Things As They Really Are
DESCRIPTION:LERAB LING: Understanding Emptiness\nwith Khenpo Tashi \nWe spend our lives relating to the world through assumptions: about ourselves\, about others\, and about the way things are. Yet according to the Buddhist teachings\, many of the difficulties we experience arise precisely because we mistake appearance for reality. \nUnderstanding the difference between the two is at the heart of the Buddhist teaching on emptiness. What does emptiness actually mean? Does emptiness mean that nothing exists? If things are empty\, why do our experiences feel so vivid and real? And how can understanding emptiness help us live with greater freedom\, clarity\, and compassion in everyday life? \nDrawing on selected highlights from The Beacon of Certainty by Mipham Rinpoche\, one of the great works of Tibetan Buddhist thought\, Khenpo Tashi explores some of the essential questions at the heart of Buddhist wisdom with warmth\, precision\, and a deep grounding in the Tibetan tradition. \nWHO THIS EVENT IS FOR\nThis retreat is open to all practitioners with familiarity in meditation and Lojong. \nWhether you are newer to the philosophical dimension of the Dharma or a long-time practitioner seeking a firmer foundation beneath your practice\, these teachings offer something increasingly rare: the opportunity to develop a clear and stable confidence in the view of emptiness\, one that can genuinely support our path and our daily life in every circumstance. \nTEACHERS\nKhenpo Tashi is one of the most gifted and respected Nyingma khenpos of his generation\, trained at Namdroling Monastery under the guidance of his root teacher Kyabjé Penor Rinpoche. For the past fourteen years\, at the request of Khenchen Namdrol Rinpoche\, he has served as the principal teacher at the Rigpa Shedra (Buddhist study college) in Pharping\, Nepal\, offering teachings on both Sutra and Tantra to hundreds of students\, from beginners to advanced practitioners. Over the past four years\, his online teachings have brought his guidance to an ever-wider audience within the Rigpa community and beyond. \nRenowned for the depth of his learning\, the precision and clarity of his explanations\, and his rare ability to connect with students according to their needs and level of understanding\, Khenpo Tashi’s teachings are consistently experienced as both inspiring and transformative. \nThese teachings will be offered in Tibetan with live English translation by Rigpa Senior Teacher Damien van Effenterre.
