Rainbow Path Retreat

October 7-9 2022, in person or online
With Chakung Jigme Wangdrak Rinpoche

The Buddhist path of Tibet begins with taking refuge and culminates in the highest sign of attainment, the rainbow body. At each step, the profound dharma offers limitless benefit for all beings. You are warmly invited to join the first in a series of teaching and practice retreats at Ewa Beach, O’ahu, Hawaii, the land of rainbows where spirit and ocean join in harmony. Tulku Jigme Wangdrak Rinpoche will begin the series with a teaching on Amitabha, the Buddha of Infinite Light, and Dewachen, the pure land of great bliss.
