In April 2012, Patrul Rinpoche will for the first time guide a Chöd Drupchen. A three days preparatory course will give everyone the time to learn the perfect way of performing a Drupchen, and the Drupchen will run for 6 nights and 7 full days. It is an extraordinaroy opportunity for everyone to keep alive this tradition of their ligneage and to create a cause for future well-being and happiness for themselves and for all beings. The drupchen will take place in Rinpoche’s house, in Georgia, imbued with Rinpoche's kindness and compassion.

When we practice Chöd, we offer our body to the perfect objects of refuge, the Three Jewels: Buddha, Dharma and Sangha, the Three Roots - Lama, Yidam and Dakinis - and to all the protectors of the Dharma. We also imagine that all the sentient beings to whom we owe karmic debts are invited to take whatever they want from our body. So we are accumulating enormous amount of merit, purifying obscurations and developing our wisdom by offering the most precious thing that exists in this world.

Participating in this powerful practice is regarded as bringing the same benefit as practicing during several years in solitary retreat, training those attending in pure perception and sharpening their ability to perceive their environment as a Buddha realm.

During the months of March and April students will have the opportunity to join the Altruistic Activity retreat which will preceed the Chöd Drupchen and take place in Rinpoche’s house in Georgia, 20 March to 12 April 2012.

A Vajrasattva Drupchen, also with a four days preparatory course and guided by Patrul Rinpoche, will be held in Dharma City from July 5 until July 16, 2012.
Enrolment for the Chöd Drupchen in Georgia will open on the 25th of February - enrolment deadline is Friday 30th March 2012
