A Day of Retreat: Awakening Divine Feminine Wisdom/An Empowering Day in the lap of Tara with Khandro Rinpoche

On this day, Khandro Rinpoche will personally guide us in embarking on a deep exploration of our body, mind and heart. ‘The Divine Feminine is the source of prajna (wisdom) and the subtle body. Revering this, opens us to nourishment, intuition, inclusivity, and healing. In this ever-changing world, resting fully in our innate feminine principle is the antidote that returns us to our true source.”

🕒 | Journey of the Day

✨ 11 AM – 1 PM |

•  Teachings on the Divine Feminine: “Listen to the wisdom teachings of Khandro Rinpoche and explore the inner power of joyful spontaneity and compassion.”
• Tara Blessing Practice: “Tara is the embodiment of the divine feminine principle who offers swift protection, nurturing support and wise guidance through life’s challenges.  We are invited to open our hearts to her blessing, discovering Tara as a source of refuge, courage, and deep inner peace.”

✨ 1 PM – 3 PM | Mindfulness Lunch Break

Bring your own lunch that may also be shared. Feel the nourishment that food brings to the body.

✨ 3 PM – 5 PM |

•  Sound Healing Session: “Let the resonant frequencies of singing bowls, chanting and healing instruments penetrate your body, releasing deep-seated stress and cellular memories. Khandro Rinpoche will purify and transmit the sound healing practices of her ancient Buddhist tradition “
• Puja (Sunset Candlelight Puja/Ceremony): “As night falls, we light candles of gratitude and prayer. To the sound of Rinpoche’s chanting, we pray for the continued removal of obstacles and dedicate the merits gathered throughout the day to all beings, bringing this day to a fulfilling close filled with love and light.”
