Machig Labdrön's Longevity Practice

Lama Tsültrim Allione

SEPTEMBER 8-10, 2023

Start Friday 5pm, end Sunday 3pm

 

Lama Tsültrim Allione will be offering a rare precious practice she received in the cave of Machig Labdrön in Bhutan, Machig Labdrön’s Longevity Practice. It includes Guru Yoga of Machig Labdrön, the great 11th century Tibetan teacher, with the use of subtle breath and visualization for the retrieval and re-establishment of the life force, vital essence, and ’lha’ or soul energies of the 5 Buddha Families that have been lost or stolen. This practice revitalizes and reinforces the life force in the body and thus increases longevity.


Requirements for the retreat
Participation in one of Tara Mandala's programs (Magyu, Gateway, Ösel Nyingtig) OR substantial experience in Vajrayana (at least one year of regular sadhana practice, for example Green Tara, Vajrasattva etc. or Ngöndro).
 

Lama Tsültrim Allione is the bestselling author of Women of Wisdom (1984), Feeding Your Demons (2008), and Wisdom Rising Journey into the Mandala of the Empowered Feminine (2018).

Lama Tsültrim is the founder of Tara Mandala, a 700-acre retreat centre near Pagosa Springs, in southwest Colorado, with the three-story temple and library dedicated to the divine feminine in the Buddhist tradition.
