En cette époque de grande transformation, puissions-nous nous réunir dans la pure aspiration au chemin de libération, et nous imprégner ensemble de la sagesse et de la compassion des lignées sacrées.
INVITATION TO THE 14th DENTOG CHIGMA RETREAT, WITH THE VENERABLE CHODPA LAMA RINPOCHE.
The Machig Ling Buddhist Centre is delighted and honoured to invite you to the fourteenth Dentok Chigma retreat, guided by Chöpa Lama Rinpoche, from 26 July to 2 August 2025, in the silence and beauty of the Aude region.
THE PRECIOUS PRACTICE OF DENTOG CHIGMA
Dentok Chigma, ‘accomplishment in a single sitting’, is a rare and profound method of Chöd, transmitted by the unbroken lineage of realised masters. This retreat is a rare opportunity to connect with the essence of the practice, in an authentic retreat setting, under the blessed guidance of Chöpa Lama Rinpoche.
The retreat will begin on the evening of Saturday 26 July.
On Sunday morning, Rinpoche will offer an introduction to Chöd practice for practitioners who have not yet received it.
Please note: It is necessary to have received the Chöd initiation in order to participate in this retreat. No access will be possible without this transmission.
FRAMEWORK OF THE RETREAT
In order to preserve the spiritual integrity created by the retreat :
Retreatants are invited to remain on site throughout the retreat. It will not be possible to leave the centre before the end.
A vow of silence (noble silence) will be observed from Sunday morning until Friday evening. This is a precious opportunity to stabilise the mind, to allow natural clarity to emerge and to connect more deeply with presence.
