Guided Vajrayogini Self-generation Retreat – The Eleven Yogas of Naropa

Quick Path to Great Bliss Retreat

January 5-12

Join us for this one-week, guided retreat on Quick Path to Great Bliss, the extensive Vajrayogini self-generation sadhana. This is a fantastic opportunity to gain familiarity with our essential daily Highest Yoga Tantra practice. Each session will focus on a different meditation from the Eleven Yogas of Naropa as explained in The New Guide to Dakini Land.

Please note: to engage in this retreat it’s necessary to have received the Highest Yoga Tantra empowerments of Heruka & Vajrayogini within the New Kadampa Tradition.

To gain the most benefit from this retreat it would be a very good idea to read The New Guide to Dakini Land in preparation.
