IMPORTANT BOOKING STILL POSSIBLE

During his last visit to Strasburg in 2005, Ringu Tulku agreed that Djangtchoub Samten Gomdra would organise every year a summer retreat guided by Rinpoché. During these retreats Rinpoche will teach not only Dharma in general but also some specific practices allowing each of us to practise and meditate during the year according to his indications.


The detailed program will be available later.

The 2006 retreat will take place in Baerenthal (France) from 14 to 20 August. The location is magnificent, under the protection of UNESCO, in the Zinsel valley in the national park of the Northern Vosges. It is easily accessible from France, Belgium, Germany, Luxemburg and Switzerland.

The retreat will take place in the Youth centre, which offers accommodation in cabins (12 people) and bungalows (8 people).

In accordance with Rinpoche's wishes, spouses, partners and children will be welcome to stay at the retreat site. Activities will be organised for accompanying people as well as for participants, not only discussion and meditation groups, but also Yoga, Tai Chi, and dance classes, as well as activities for children. These activities will be led by retreat participants who will share with us their knowledge and experience. Those who would like to share their skills are invited to contact us so we can establish the list of activities. There are also various other facilities available locally, such as swimming, hiking, and riding.

The number of places is limited and the retreat is open to all Rinpoche's students.
