New Year’s is the time for reflection and cleansing of the old, bringing in the new. This Retreat is great chance to go deep in this powerful Ngondro preliminary practice of Vajrasattva that has deep purifying and healing power. We will get instruction on the practice of Vajrasattva for physical, emotional and subtle body purification. Giorgio will guide us in the supportive practices of movement, breath and relaxation. Some sessions we will do together as a group and some you will do in your own room gaining more personal experience. There will be time for private interviews as needed for questions about your progress or natural challenges presented by the retreat process. There is no greater benefit we can do in this life than to practice in retreat for the benefit of all beings. For questions or more information please contact Drupon Rachel directly or the Milarepa Retreat Center.

For those who are interested in joining the Vajrayogini Retreat in the future this retreat is an essential prerequisite.
