The Seven Mirrors of Dzogchen Practice Retreat
Summer Retreat at Serenity Ridge and on Zoom June 19-July 2
Join Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche for the annual two-week Summer Retreat at Serenity Ridge in Virginia or online via Zoom. The Seven Mirrors of Dzogchen is an essential text of the Tibetan Bon dzogchen tradition, which directly introduces us to the clear, open awareness that is our true nature and offers methods for maintaining a connection to the natural state.
Week 1: June 18-25, 2002.
Week 2: June 26-July 2, 2022
Live simultaneous translation will be available in Polish, Portuguese and Spanish.
The text of the Seven Mirrors of Dzogchen was composed by Drenpa Namkha, a great Tibetan meditation master of the late seventh/early eighth century. Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche has offered teachings from this text on several occasions, including his 2020 summer retreat, and has published a book of commentary on the Seven Mirrors based on his 2020 teachings.
In the two-week retreat this summer, Rinpoche will guide us to recognize and rest in our true nature, engaging selected practices and meditations. Newcomers and experienced practitioners are equally welcome! The emphasis on practice will allow experiences and realization to deepen in the warmth of our collective practice.
Due to Covid-19 protocols currently in place, onsite participation at Serenity Ridge Retreat Center is currently limited to 50 retreatants total, and a Covid policy is in place. More information is provided during the registration process. Preregistration is required for both in-person and online retreats.
