Looking for a meaningful way to spend your summer? Dive into the ancient wisdom of Tibetan Buddhism with our Dzogchen immersion program for young adults aged 18 to 30.
There are two possible tracks of in person participation:
(1) Immersive week-long Tibetan Buddhist meditation intensive co-organized by the Padmasambhava Buddhist Center and Dharma Gates
(2) Immediately followed by a free 7-week training program of Vajrayana study, practice, and service.
You’re welcome to attend only the 1st week intensive ($225), or alternatively, to attend both retreats completely for free for a total of two life changing months of retreat at Padma Samye Ling.
In the hermitage of Padma Samye Ling, you’ll learn the art of meditation, delve into profound Buddhist philosophy, and explore the transformative teachings of Dzogchen under the guidance of a meditation master, Ven. Khenpo Tsewang Rinpoche. Nestled in the serene wilderness of Upstate New York, this program offers a unique opportunity to connect with nature, nurture your mind, and discover your true potential.
Spots are limited – so reserve your spot today and embark on a journey of a lifetime.
