Our friends at Karmapa Center 16 commemorate His Holiness the 16th Karmapa, Rangjung Rigpe Dorje’s parinirvāṇa every year on November 5th. This year, a Guru Yoga Teaching Retreat will precede their anniversary practices. This retreat, hosted in Taiwan and online, includes teachings by His Holiness the 17th Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje, Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche, and Dilyak Drupon Rinpoche.

This is a precious opportunity to receive a traditional lung (oral transmission), special teachings, and practice His Holiness the 16th Karmapa’s Guru Yoga Sadhana.
