New Retreat Program at Vajrapani Institute!

FPMT Education Services is pleased to announce a new advanced retreat program created in response to Lama Zopa Rinpoche’s expressed wish for FPMT students to actualize the Lam-Rim, especially attain shiné (calm abiding) and bodhichitta.

This new program is being developed in conjunction with Vajrapani Institute, USA, to be held March 16 – March 30, 2013 at Vajrapani Institute’s California retreat center. The scheduled retreat will be the first of an annual event series which will encourage and support committed meditators within the FPMT to advance in their practice.

A program with such an ambitious mission must have a skillful leader qualified to guide students in a fruitful way. We are delighted that Venerable René Feusi has agreed to lead the inaugural March retreat. Ven. René has over twenty-three years of experience as a meditator, teacher and retreat leader following the experiential tradition of Lama Yeshe and Lama Zopa Rinpoche.
