Vajrayogini Amending the Mantra Fire Puja with Marybeth Keigher

This advanced Buddhist program is being offered under Shambhala Mountain's generosity policy. It is our wish that everyone qualified to attend the program be able to do so.

Advanced Vajrayana practice retreat restricted to practitioners who have completed Vajrayogini sadhana practice. First-timers and repeaters are warmly encouraged to attend this powerful program. The retreat will be held in our spacious Red Feather Lodge which was recently renovated specifically for fire puja practice. Please join us as we bask in the blissful fire of the Glorious Coemergent Mother Vajrayogini!

Marybeth Keigher, a student of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche since 1970, received Vajrayogini abhisheka in 1979 and has since led numerous fire pujas. A practicing acupuncturist and sound healing practitioner since 1992, she is also a singer who enjoys setting mantras and texts to melody.

Our intent is to encourage and support intensive practice opportunities for Shambhala community members. Therefore we are making this program available to all qualified Vajrayogini practitioners by offering it under Shambhala Mountain's generosity policy. The policy provides the opportunity for participants to pay what they can afford by selecting one of three pricing options. The first option is Shambhala Mountain's regular room and board rates plus the program materials fee of $50.

The second option is a flat room and board rate of $70 per night plus the materials fee. Your accommodations will be the best we have available after accommodating all participants paying our regular rates. Priority for best-available housing will be on a first-come first-served basis. We will not be able to confirm which housing you will be assigned until one week prior to the program start date.

The third option is the same as the second option except the flat room and board rate is $40 per night. Again, housing is best available on a first-come first-served basis. Please understand that we are not able to provide student or senior discounts at this rate.

There will also be an opportunity during the program to offer a teachers gift.
