Path of Purification
With Atula, Nagamudra, Nagasiddhi and Mandarava
September 3 - 11, 2026
Atula and the team will guide, with skill and kindness, us into an aware relationship with both ourselves and one another. This retreat involves group work in which with honesty and sensitivity we explore our patterns of communicating and relating. We will develop a deeper awareness of how our inner experience is impacting and affecting our interactions, and come into a more compassionate relationship with ourselves and others.
All this takes place within a ritual context of meditation, devotional Vajrasattva practice and periods of silence. A profound retreat that has been known to help manifest lasting changes in the lives of the participants. To attend the retreat, you will need to have been regularly practising within the Triratna Buddhist community for at least two years and be willing to allow others to see you, and to see others, in all our own glorious imperfection.
Please note: This retreat starts on Thursday evening and lasts 8 nights.
RETREAT CATEGORY: TRIRATNA INTENSIVE
To attend this retreat you will need to have been regularly meditating for at least two years and regularly attend retreats, a centre or a group within the context of the Triratna Buddhist Community.
