10-Day Trinley Nyingpo Practice Retreat

March 14 - 24, 2025

This ten-day practice retreat will focus on our primary Guru Rinpoche practice, the Trinley Nyingpo. In years past, Lama Tsultrim Sangpo has taken us into the intricacies of deity practice using this special sadhana from the Tukdrub Barche Kunsel, The Heart Practice that Dispels all Obstacles. Our upcoming retreat will be an opportunity to put his instructions into practice.

*ONLINE attendees please see the bottom of this registration page.*

The Tukdrub Barche Kunsel Guru Rinpoche empowerment is not required to attend this retreat, but it is required if one wishes to make the Trinley Nyingpo their daily practice. Please note that this empowerment was offered by Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche during his Annual Seminar at Gomde California in 2019 and 2023, as well as by Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche during his Lamrim Yeshe Nyingpo program in 2018.

This is a practice retreat—primarily intended for those who have received instructions on this sadhana in the past. There may be some general Q&A during the program, but most sessions will focus on practice. That said, upon registration you will receive an email containing a wealth of resources for the retreat or for one’s personal practice of the Trinley Nyingpo—including an extensive series of recorded teachings given by Lama Tsultrim Sangpo.

Accommodation

Please note that Gomde California in the winter is essentially a rainforest. If you opt to bring your own camping gear, please be fully prepared for a winter camping experience.

Scholarships

Our rates are based fairly on the expenses and labor required to host a retreat of this length at a remote dharma center. We have limited scholarship and work-study positions available for this retreat. If you would like to attend the retreat but need financial support, please write to coordinator@gomdeca.org.

We look forward to practicing this essential sadhana of Guru Rinpoche together.
