FAQ - GROUP RETREATS
What retreats does Tushita offer and what are the prerequisites for
joining them?

the year, click on the links below for more information.
• 8 sets of Nyung Nays (at Saka
Dawa – May/June),
• 3-month Vajrasattva retreat
(during the monsoon months - mid June to mid September)
• Medicine Buddha retreat
(August/September)
• Green Tara retreat (October)
The prerequisites for attending any of these retreats differ between
the retreats and for the Medicine Buddha and Green Tara retreat from
year to year.
Minimum requirements for ALL retreats are:
-
stable mental health
- having formally taken refuge
-
a good understanding of the
lam rim teachings (lam rim or introductory Buddhism course at Tushita/
Kopan/ Root Institute etc. as a minimum)
-
a basic understanding of
tantric techniques: prayer, visualization, mantras etc.
-
the appropriate initiation
(often arranged by Tushita before the retreat).
As always, students on our courses are asked to abide by our basic code
of discipline.
