Day Courses & Retreats
Day courses and retreats are opportunities to look at particular teachings from Sutra and Tantra in more detail. Day courses generally run from 10:00am-4:00pm, and workshops from 10:00am-2:00pm. In each, we begin with a few minutes for prayers, followed by teachings and meditation. There is also time for Q&A.
Retreat is a special time to quiet the mind and go deeply into one’s spiritual practice. Join us in the precious opportunity to engage in authentic retreat in this blessed and inspiring environment at Vajrayogini Buddhist Center.
Students are welcome to sit in comfortable chairs or meditation cushions on the floor.
Request Teachings
As a result of his disciples making requests, Buddha gave many Dharma teachings that are the medicine for curing the diseases of delusions. From that time until now, countless beings have attained complete liberation from samsaric suffering through sincerely practising Buddha’s teachings.
In a similar way, although there are many emanations of Je Tsongkhapa in the world, if they do not teach Je Tsongkhapa’s Dharma the people of this world will have no chance to hear this special Dharma, put it into practice, and gain pure realizations. Therefore, we ourselves should make a special request for the turning of the Wheel of Dharma.
Please suggest topics for upcoming day courses and retreats by emailing the Education Program Coordinator (EPC). We are also happy to help arrange for teachings in other areas of the region upon request.
