Vajrayana Gathering – Mahamudra, HUM, ASHE, and All the Elements
In this weeklong gathering, Vajrayana practitioners will deepen in the practices of Ashe Mahamudra and The Sadhana of Mahamudra. We will also have time for our individual practices, discussion and silence, and time in glorious nature.
Celebrating our Vajrayana Heritage
We embody the full spectrum of elemental and emotional energies – from the groundedness of earth, to the movements of water, fire, and wind, to the unmoving vastness of space. We invite these energies to come forth from our heart and manifest on the spot.
We will have a full mandala of practices from ngöndro to Scorpion Seal Assembly and together practice Ashe Mahamudra and The Sadhana of Mahamudra.
There will be talks, discussion, silence, qigong, walking outside, and spontaneous arisings. Summer is a wonderful time to connect with the energy of the land and with each other.
Join us for a powerful week where we can refresh our elemental heart.
Prerequisites: Completion of Sacred World Assembly or Vajrayana Seminary.
‘Earth, water, fire and all the elements,
The animate and the inanimate, the trees and the greenery and so on,
All partake of the nature of self-existing equanimity,
Which is quite simply what the Great Wrathful One is’.
– From the Sadhana of Mahamudra (CTR, 1968 Bhutan)
