Ringu Tulku Rinpoche

Weekend Teachings
Friday 11 July 7.00pm to Sunday 13 July 1pm

We are delighted to announce that Ringu Tulku Rinpoche will return to teach at Dzogchen Beara this Summer in July.

Rinpoche has long been a friend and advisor for our community, visiting almost every year since the centre opened.

We will publish more details on the retreat as soon as we have them.

Dzogchen Beara is a not-for-profit charity. The fees are set at a minimum to cover the costs of the weekend but we have many other daily expenses to keep the centre open. Please consider making a donation where indicated on your online booking form.

Location

The retreat will be held in our new Dzogchen Beara Temple. With expansive views across the bay, the temple is a modern example of a traditional Tibetan monastery, a form of architecture designed to be an inspiring symbol of the Buddha’s teachings for our times

Catering

Delicious two course vegetarian lunches, with soup and bread in the evenings. Cooked with love at Dzogchen Beara, using homegrown and organic ingredients whenever possible. Tea and coffee.
