Summer Retreat Programme:

28th of June - 31 July - 19th Butterlamp Offering Ceremony

fee for the course - 25 PLN / per day + meals
children under the age of 15 - 10 PLN/ per day + meals .

For 18 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!

Money for butterlamps you can send directly to Polish Association bank account:
