🇬🇧 Greetings! The opportunity to participate in this year’s retreat – focusing on the practice of mandala offering – will be available soon. The preparation phase is drawing to a close. Registration will begin on Friday, April 6th, 2018.

The 2018 retreat will take place from October 3rd to 11th. These nine days will allow us seven full days of practice this time, plus an arrival and a departure day. In order to register, you have to be able to be present the complete seven days. We, the organizing team, hope that many of you have the good conditions to be able to come and join us!

You can check out the venue here: http://hochkeilhaus.at/, get some glimpses of the beautiful area here: https://www.hochkeil.at/index.php/-impressum- or find many more pictures on Hochkeilhaus‘ Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/hochkeilhaus/

Just as the last retreat was such a precious opportunity used well, creating beautiful memories, meaningful times together and boundless inspiration, we are hoping that we will be, once again, supporting one another and cultivating knowledge and wisdom together, under the guidance of our wonderful, dear teacher, Sabchu Rinpoché. On that note, here is a short message from him:

Friends, it is time again to be together and to restrengthen the core of our being, our practice. I am looking forward to these seven days of togetherness with friends from our global Karma Kagyu family. Just as Milarepa describes his retreat abode in one of his songs, this year our retreat venue is also near mountains, lakes, and forests. Great! I am joyful in anticipation of seeing the resilience, eagerness, and collective aspirations of our Dharma Practitioners during the seven days time we will spend together.

Be well, and see you soon. 

Sabchu Rinpoché
