Himachaal Pradesh
Education, Outreach and
Retreat Centre
Khandro-la envisages the establishment of an educational and
retreat centre near to Dharamsala that will be an important
hub for East - West training and dialogue.
Nuns from Zanskar will travel to this site
to receive invaluable religious instruction from Tibetan Masters
who may find it more difficult to travel to the remote parts
of the Himalayas. Alongside religious training, these nuns
will receive vocational training in becoming outreach workers
back in their own remote local communities.
The centre will be a place also for western
students to do retreat and study.
It will provide space for westerners and lay
Himalayan people to participate in the exchange of skills,
knowledge and expertise to develop and maintain the outreach
and self-sustainable economic projects of Khachodling.
