Vajrayogini Pacifying Weekend

With Mark Nowakowski

May 7 - 9, 2021

Register Now
Fifteen years ago, Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche gave us permission to do this practice as a rite-of-aid, and we have been doing the Enriching and Magnetizing since then.
This spring, for the second time, we will perform the fire offering to pacify any obstacles for Dorje Denma Ling, the Shambhala Mandala, and to bring peace and healing to the entire world. Please join us for a peaceful and powerful weekend of practice in the crystal white palace of Dorje Denma Ling. Our focus will be on pacifying and healing “all of the sickness, dons, and injuries of the three gates.”

Program Cost

$100 for the Fire Offering including food; accommodations extra.

Daily accommodation prices range from $15 (shrine room floor) to $100 (single private room).

Any alcohol purchases are the responsibility of the participants.

Schedule

Arrival: Friday Afternoon to set up Fire Offering    Dinner: 6:30pm

Saturday Practice: 7am to 9pm

Please join us at Dorje Denma Ling for this powerful weekend practice.
