Annual Vajrayogini Retreat 2022 (IN-PERSON OR ONLINE)

About This Retreat:

The Vajayogini Retreat is one of our annual retreats for initiates only. This year Rinpoche’s teachings will give special emphasis to Vajrayogini Preliminary Practices which are a fundamental and mandatory part of the Vajrayogini Retreat. 

Please book early to avoid disappointment as places are limited. This retreat can be attended in person or online. A Vajrayogini Fire Puja is tentatively scheduled for those who have recently completed their Retreat. If you wish to stay on for the Saka Dawa Celebration, you are welcome to do so.

Are you struggling financially and unable to pay the course fee? We may be able to assist you. Please contact us to discuss your options.

About Lama Choedak Rinpoche:

Born in Tibet, Rinpoche was raised under the tutelage of His Eminence Chogye Trichen Rinpoche. After completing a rigorous 12-year monastic training in the Sakya order of Tibetan Buddhism, Rinpoche graduated from a three and a half year solitary meditation retreat sponsored by His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

As a highly acclaimed translator, Rinpoche has translated for some of the highest Tibetan Buddhist masters of all four traditions. Living in the West for 20 years he is the founder and spiritual director of over a dozen centers in Australasia.

He has been teaching Buddhism and meditation in the west for over fifteen years, and a frequent visitor to the Mid North Coast over the past several years. 

His Eminence Chogye Trichen Rinpoche conferred upon him the title of “Rinpoche” (precious one) in recognition of his Buddhist activities in Australia. Rinpoche has an excellent command of English and a deep understanding of the Western mind. His teachings are lucid, practical and enjoyable.
