Chakrasamvara Retreat at the Great Stupa of Dharmakaya with Greg Smith

A practice intensive for qualified practitioners.

“You cannot quite say how Chakrasamvara relates to mahamudra. Well, it is mahamudra. All the deepest and highest aspects of the ordinary mind are presented very precisely as a practice.”
Tai Situ Rinpoche

This profound practice intensive will be held within the physical representation of Chakrasamvara's mandala in the Great Stupa of Dharmakaya. Recitations will count toward the practice requirement. You are welcome to come for all or a part of this intensive.

Prerequisite: Chakrasamvara Abhisheka
