Adhisthana
International Summer Sanghas Retreat | Invoking Padmasambhava: The Precious Master | Bhante 100

Led by Subhuti + team
This is going to be a large international gathering in the big marquee and the stunning surroundings of Adhisthana. It is primarily a camping (or camper vanning) retreat. Members of our sangha are invited to join these celebrations around Sangharakshita's 100th Birthday and learn more about the life and practice of Padmasambhava.   

There will be no official York party but why not team up with friends and make your own way there? Booking is direct with Adhisthana.

Padmasambhava made the journey from India, the land of Urgyen, to help establish the Dharma in the particular, hostile cultural conditions of Tibet. A millennium later Urgyen Sangharakshita, impressed with that same stream of spiritual energy, made the journey from India to the West to help establish the Dharma in the modern world and in doing so gifted us a ‘true spiritual tradition’.

Out of gratitude, and instilled with inspiration to let the light burn bright for others, let’s gather a momentous number of people to meditate, chant, perform puja and engage in symbolic ritual on a mountainous scale. Let us appeal to the unconscious depths.

The power of hundreds of devoted practitioners performing feats of ritual, collectively calling on the adhisthana (or grace) of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, will be unleashed on the cosmos. And then we’ll sit silently, waiting to hear, see and feel the response.

Please note, this is primarily a camping event. Unless you are travelling from outside the UK, or are physically unable to camp, please don’t book the indoor accommodation option.

Costs will be as follows: Standard £330  |  Concession £265  |  Financial Assistance £210 -  Please note that the payment includes a non-refundable and non-transferrable deposit of £70.  There is no need to book yet, we are seeing who might be interested at present.
