With Phakchok Rinpoche
For the first time in Europe, yogi Phakchok Rinpoche will offer a rare and complete transmission: the empowerment and meditation instructions from the treasure of Buddha Padmasambhava’s heart.
Over three consecutive summers, Rinpoche will grant empowerments for the full mandala, the three kayas, and the twelve manifestations of Padmasambhava, together with essential guidance from Tukdrub Barchey Kunsel, a practice focused on removing the obstacles that prevent us from realizing the true nature of mind.
This is a remarkable opportunity for anyone seeking a deep connection with an authentic lineage. Participants receive the full support and authorization to train in liberating methods that point directly toward enlightenment.
Rinpoche will begin with The Essence of Wakeful Openness, a practice text that provides clear, step-by-step instruction along the tantric path.
He will also open the treasury of the Secret Mother Tantra and bestow the empowerment of Red Avalokiteshvara. Phakchok Rinpoche received this lineage from Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche, Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, and his father, Chokling Rinpoche.
The empowerments of Barchey Kunsel include:
Phakchok Rinpoche is a master who carries the essence of Padmasambhava’s instructions with passion, dignity, and love. Through his experience, he meets people on every level and offers guidance on the path of inner transformation.
You may arrive from the morning of the 20th. The teachings will begin in the evening, around 7pm on the 20th.
The teachings conclude in the afternoon on the 24th.
The following fees include selected accommodation for four nights, from August 20th to 24th, as well as three daily vegan meals at Gomde.
The teachings are offered as a dharma gift, and donations may be given at the end of the retreat. Please bring cash for donations, as Gomde offers only limited options for withdrawing money.
