Amitabha Phowa — Empowerment and Retreat

Amitabha Phowa Empowerment and Retreat with Drubpon Tsering Rinpoche

March 11–15, 2026

This year, after repeated requests from the Sangha, Drubpon Tsering will impart two special Phowa transmissions. In addition to the Amitabha empowerment, Rinpoche will impart the Drikung Phowa Chenmo on the one hand and the Dzogchen Phowa, which he received directly from Khenpo Munsel, on the other. 

Both Phowas are true treasures, and we are delighted that the causes and conditions have finally come together so that we can receive these teachings.
