Farewell to Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche before his retreat
H.E. Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche has completed a traditional retreat.
On May 4TH, 2022, H.E. Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche completed a 3.5-year retreat in the Karma Kagyu tradition: The Path of Methods and Liberation. On this day at 5:30 Rinpoche led the White Robe Ceremony (Re Chöe) 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽📿📿📿🌈🌈🌈
During the ceremony after the opening of the monastery, Rinpoche performed a puja with the Lamas who had a traditional retreat with him. Rinpoche served dinner to the gathered people, and the next day, together with a retinue of lamas and disciples from various parts of the world, he visited the temple of Guru Rinpoche, Tara and Dorje Phamo, where he was welcomed by the Venerable Phakchok Rinpoche.
On the 3rd day after the end of the retreat, Venerable Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche received us and gave us tips and recommendations regarding the functioning of the center in Poland and announced his next visit to Europe and Poland in 2023.
Rinpoche’s visit to the Khyenkong Karma Kagyu Poland center will take place on September 9-13, 2023.
