Post-Summer Festival Retreat | 10th - 16th August 2026

From Blissful Path to Quick Path

A step-by-step retreat to deepen your connection with Guru Vajrayogini and to enhance - or begin - your joyful Tantric practice

Following the NKT-IKBU International Summer Festival, this retreat with Gen Kelsang Chokga offers a precious opportunity to come under the loving care of Guru Vajrayogini and strengthen our confidence in her practice.

During the first three days, we will engage in the Blissful Path sadhana — a short, complete practice that contains everything we need for daily generation stage meditation.

Whether you already have experience or are just beginning, this retreat will help you establish a joyful, stable daily practice, gain confidence to continue your Tantric meditation at home, and learn how to integrate it into everyday life to overcome ordinary appearances.

What a gorgeous and peaceful place - the new meditation room is cosy in all weathers and a lovely place to meditate and listen to profound wisdom teachings. The cafe is full of welcoming volunteers and has really tasty coffee!! The grounds are full of beautiful trees too - not to be missed. 💛
