GREAT APPEAL TO EVERYBODY!!!

For 16 years we have been able to offer butterlamps according to the wish of our teacher Chimed Rigdzin Rinpoche, to whom the Butterlamp Offering Ceremony was especially important. During this years' course we will offer butterlamps for the world peace as we do every year.

To make the retreat possible we will need oil (3.400 l is needed to fill 111.111 butterlamps), wicks, clothes. One butterlamp costs 0,20 PLN. The fee for the retreat covers only the costs of participants' accommodation in our center during the retreat.

Last year we managed to offer 111.111 lamps once again, thanks to the sponsors and people who cleaned and lit the lamps.

So, we kindly ask everybody to sponsor butterlamps!

Please, send money to Polish or German association bank account with information "DONATION FOR BUTTERLAMPS".


This year we have also invited Chhimed Gyaltsen Rinpoche from the Khordong monastery in Kham, Tibet. We are working on fixing the last details and dates but it is most likely that Rinpoche (who is also Chokyi Gyaltsen Rinpoche incarnation), will come to Darnkow on 10.07 and stay here until the end of the course with HH. Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche. We asked Chimed Gyaltsen Rinpoche to give empowerments of the Khordong lineage - they will be given during the butterlamp course. We will send you more information as soon as we fix the dates with Rinpoche.


3. 08 - 02. 09. 2013 - Retreat with HH Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche

Caution! The date of retreat completion with Rinpoche may change by a day or two

Again, we asked Rinpoche for Transmission of Dypa `I Do Pema Trinley from Nyingma Kama (Dypa `I Do or otherwise Do Gongpa Dypa - Sutra Unifying All Intentions or Sutra Unifying the Minds of All the Buddhas) which is one of four root Anuyoga tantras. The commentary to the empowerment was written by one of the main lamas of Djangter tradition, Rigzin Pema Thinley, at the request of the Fifth Dalai Lama. Do Gongpa Dypa comes from the line of Kama, the long oral transmission, passed from teacher to the student.

26. 08. 2013 - Stupa consecration ceremony conducted by His Holiness Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche
