Mahamudra Dathun
with Elizabeth Callahan (Joining Via Zoom), Scott Wellenbach and Nancy Huszagh
May 4 - June 1, 2018
“When mind is without reference point, that is mahàmudrà. When you are accustomed to and familiar with this, unsurpassable awakening is attained.”
– Tilopa; Mahàmudrà: The Ocean of Definitive Meaning, p 174.
Join retreat leaders Elizabeth Callahan, Scott Wellenbach and Nancy Huszagh for an entire month’s practice of mahamudra.
As a practice text, we will use The Transmission: Pointing Out the Dharmakaya by the ninth Karmapa, Wangchuk Dorje, translated by the Vajravairochana Translation Committee. You can purchase the text and commentary for $65 Canadian from Nalanda Translation. Please purchase these materials prior to the retreat.
The retreat will follow a traditional three-year retreat format – four practice sessions per day. Authorization to attend is restricted to Vajrayana practitioners. Due to the sequential nature of the instructions, full participation is required.
