Sunday, Aug 5  7 pm to Aug 12 4 pm

Lotus Lake Retreat Center, Neillsville, WI

Session 3:    August 5-12   Introduction to Scripture:  Buddhist Sutras       

The original teachings of Lord Buddha Shakyamuni are preserved in the classic sutras.  Rinpoche has waited until now to teach more extensively on the value of Buddhist scripture because of the many valuable sutras that have recently been translated into English.  There will be commentary on one important sutra as well as preparation for Session Four of extensive sutra chanting. Includes Buddha Shakyamuni empowerment.

Going on Retreat at Lotus Lake Buddhist Center Retreat at  Doonkar Retreat House

White Conch retreats are held on the sacred consecrated monastery and retreat grounds of Domo Geshe Rinpoche called Lotus Lake Buddhist Center and Monastery. While tenting under the pines of the very quiet Meditation or Jetavana Groves, you might even sense the presence of a Pure Land.

Indoor rooms are in the quietude of the new Doonkar Retreat House.  Enjoy three excellent vegetarian meals per day with homemade bread, our own yogurt, kombucha and many other gourmet specialties. Practice walking meditation on the kora path around a beautiful lotus pond with the large Buddha statue at the head.

On group retreats there are daily dharma teachings in the spacious Temple and informal sharing by Rinpoche or senior students over breakfast or lunch. Whether you are seated in Norbu’s Great Room under the Wish Granting Tree, visiting the organic vegetable and flower gardens or are in your own room, the environment has been specially created to make it easy to quiet your mind, learn without distractions and be under the care of our kind retreat master and teacher.
