Blissful Path: Tantric Meditation Retreat

This in-depth retreat will focus on gaining practical experience of the Eleven Yogas of Vajrayogini, which lead to the swift attainment of Enlightenment. Each session will include practical instruction and guided meditations based on the book The New Guide to Dakiniland, and we will be using the special prayers The Blissful Path.   

This Highest Yoga Tantra retreat is open to those who have already received the empowerments of Heruka and Vajrayogini, or who have the sincere intention to receive these empowerments in October at the International Kadampa Fall Festival in Brazil.
