We are delighted to inform you that our upcoming Vajrakilaya retreat will be offered online as well!
EMPOWERMENT: THE ONLINE VERSION OF THIS RETREAT IS OPEN ONLY TO THOSE WHO HAVE PREVIOUSLY RECEIVED THE VAJRAKILAYA EMPOWERMENT.
The retreat will be held from January 5th - 10th, 2026, and is an auspicious way to start the new year by clearing away obstacles. You are welcome to attend all or only some of the practice sessions that are offered. The teaching sessions will be recorded for those who are unable to attend live - although Drubpon Lama Tenzin encourages everyone to join live whenever possible. The four daily practice sessions will be live streamed only and no recordings of those will be offered. You can find the schedule for the retreat here:

Please note that given the restricted nature of this Vajrakilaya practice, we will be using a different Zoom link than we use for our daily practice sessions. We will not be streaming our usual daily practices for the duration of this retreat. Those who frequently attend our daily morning and evening practices can join the Vajrakilaya sessions instead by registering for this retreat.
Before the start of the retreat, we will send an information email including the links to the live practice and teaching sessions and the recordings of the teaching sessions, to the email addresses of all those who have registered.
If you do not have the practice text yet, please send an email to onlineretreats@gomde.fr stating the time and place you received the Vajrakilaya empowerment, and from what teacher.
If it is within your means, we are grateful for a donation for online participation. All donations will go towards preparations for the next three-year retreat. You can read more about the amazing project to get ready for the next three-year retreat here:

RESTRICTED ACCESS
Given the restricted nature of this practice, access to the teaching recordings is set up in a way that they cannot be downloaded, on the request of our retreat master Lama Tenzin Sangpo. Please do not share any of the links, including the Zoom link, provided to you during this retreat with anyone. If you know someone who wishes to participate in this retreat as well, and has received the empowerment, please ensure they sign up personally here on Billetweb. We thank you for respecting Lama la’s instructions to preserve the authenticity of this practice.
We wish you an auspicious start of the new year and look forward to practicing together, onsite and online, with Drubpon Lama Tenzin Sangpo!
