Dakini wisdom is our own innate intrinsic wisdom, beyond concepts, beyond fear and beyond concepts. This wisdom also speaks to us through nature, as the sacred energy of the five elements.

This special one day retreat offered online and also in Southern California, and is the first group event since the closure for the pandemic in 2020.  It will offer the extraordinary opportunity to chant and study from Invoking the 100,000 Dakinis, an inspiring Tibetan Buddhist prayer from the Dakini’s Heart Essence Cycle and the Jeweled Garland Chod (Rinchen Trengwa). Invoking the 100,000 Dakinis is a meditation practice to raise radical courage and vivid presence. It invites protection, support and wakefulness within the mandala of the five elemental wisdoms and the meditation of Vajrayogini. 

This retreat is led by Pema Khandro, scholar of Buddhist Studies, Lama and Tulku. Pema Khandro is a lama and lineage holder of the Nyingma and Kagyu traditions. She is also the founder of Ngakpa International and its three projects, Dakini Mountain, Buddhist Studies Institute and the Yogic Medicine Institute. 

This is the first in-person event with Pema Khandro since 2019, we are overjoyed to have the opportunity to gather together with Lama and dharma friends.
