Continuation of HH Tai Situ Pa’s teachings and guided meditation

Our annual retreat blends written contemplations with meditations, encouraging reflection on the past year and setting intentions for the year ahead. By focusing on what truly matters, we cultivate a more meaningful and fulfilling life.

As we step into 2026, reflecting on the challenges of living in an unpredictable world can deepen our insight, stabilize our focus, and support us in processing its impact.

This year’s retreat will also include New Year’s messages from HH Chamgon Tai Situ Rinpoche and other Buddhist Lamas. Each participant will have a butter lamp to offer as part of the retreat.

This retreat welcomes everyone, regardless of meditation or retreat experience.

Understanding Karma: Zoom Teaching

"When each person incarnates, the lifetime is the manifestation of individual karma- ie causes and conditions created in past lifetimes. ... Karma is a relative truth, so it is changeable. Everyone is ultimately perfect, Buddha.. Relatively though , everyone has plenty of imperfections until a certain level of realisation is attained "
