THE KHORDONG BUDDHIST ASSOCIATION IN POLAND
WOULD LIKE TO INVITE FOR
RETREATS AT DROPHAN LING CENTRE IN DARNKÓW

Drophan Ling Gompa

Summer Retreat Programme:

26 June - 30 July - 18th Butterlamp Offering Ceremony

fee for the course - 20 PLN / per day + meals
children under the age of 15 - 7 PLN/ per day + meals .

For 17 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.

Thanks to sponsors from China this year we have already oil for butterlamps. But the lights need not only oil but also the people who will do this practice. Without your presence and work in cleaning we won`t be able to offer butterlamps like every year before.
We invite everyone to participate in Butterlamps Offering.
