THE RAINBOW PATH RETREAT

CHAKUNG JIGME WANGDRAK RINPOCHE

October 7 to October 9, 2022

Pohakupuna Beach Club

on the beautiful island of O’ahu, Hawaii

Aloha

We are honored to invite you to participate in a unique opportunity to receive the wisdom of the sacred dharma from an authentic Tibetan master on the beautiful and sacred lands of Hawaii, in an outdoor venue right on the beach.  Spend intimate time with a realized and recognized lama and receive teachings not widely available to the public.  All while reconnecting with nature - walking barefoot on the grounding soft earth, dipping in the healing saltwater ocean, dancing in the cool island breeze, and sitting and receiving the warmth of the Hawaiian sun. We look forward to sharing a little piece of the ‘aina and the dharma with you.

With a warm mahalo,

The Aloha Dharma Crew

 

The Retreat

The Buddhist path of Tibet begins with taking refuge and culminates in the highest sign of attainment, the rainbow body. At each step, the profound dharma offers limitless benefit for all beings.  You are warmly invited to join the first in a series of teaching and practice retreats at Ewa Beach, Oahu, Hawaii, where spirit and ocean join in harmony and the land offers its blessing.  Tulku Jigme Wangdrak Rinpoche will begin the series with a teaching on Amithaba, the Buddha of Infinite Light, and Dewachen, the pure land of great bliss.

You may attend in person in Hawaii for teaching, practice and empowerment, or join teaching sessions online via Zoom.  The retreat will be held October 8 and 9 on the full moon.
