On Land: Integrating Chakrasamvara, Chandali and Mahamudra

A nine-day residential intensive at Drala Mountain Center's Great Stupa of Dharmakaya, this retreat weaves together Chakrasamvara mandala practice, the inner yoga of chandali, and mahamudra instruction. Led by Dorje Loppön Lodrö Dorje, participants work with the yidam visualization in tandem with subtle-body practices drawn from the teachings of Karma Pakshi and Thrangu Rinpoche. The stupa itself serves as a vivid three-dimensional mandala, supporting deepening work through generation and completion stage practices. The retreat combines guided meditation, detailed instruction on each practice section, and group study of translations prepared by the Vajravairochana Translation Committee. Participants engage step-by-step with the material over the course of the week, allowing time for both formal practice and integration. This program requires prior Chakrasamvara abhisheka.
