Residential retreat of Kurukulle
——————————————————————————————–
A Highest Yoga Tantra practice which helps us to fall in love with the Dharma and the correct vision of reality. It was transmitted by Mahasiddha Tilopa and his disciples, as well as many other mahasiddhas such as Indrabhuti of Oddiyana. The name Kurukulle, in Tibetan, Rig Gyema, means She Who Causes Knowledge or She Who Awakens Non-Dual Awareness. Kurukulle helps to remove obstacles and in the relative world, improves our health, increases our wisdom and creates good conditions for Dharma practice. Ultimately she helps us to achieve Buddhahood. Kurukulle forms a triad with Manjushri and Sarasvati: together, they increase wisdom, both ordinary and spiritual, and intelligence.

Singing Bowls
Deep relaxation
Our body is like a musical instrument that vibrates and resonates with its surroundings. If subjected to stressful situations, disturbing emotions and a polluted external environment, it loses its natural vibration and, similarly to a poorly tuned instrument, it is no longer able to express itself in harmony, reaching a misaligned, and sometimes blocked, state from which it is difficult to escape.
Tibetan bowls through sound and their powerful vibration can help us bring our body and mind back to a state of balance and harmony. By entering into resonance with the positive frequencies produced by these ancient instruments, the nervous system calms down, anxiety, stress and sleep disturbances are reduced, the muscles relax, circulation is reactivated, and the overall psycho-physical state of the person improves. increasing the feeling of well-being.
On a more subtle level they can help us get in touch with the deepest part of ourselves, increasing awareness and promoting the self-healing process.
Let’s dedicate this meeting to taking care of ourselves, letting go of what we don’t need and reconnecting with our inner space.

Vajrayoghini Dajug: self-empowerment of Vajrayogini
The practice of Vajrayogini, one of the most important of the Mahanuttara Yoga Tantra, the highest class of Tantra, is considered one of the most powerful of all Buddhist Tantric meditations. Buddha emanated Vajrayogini, a special female enlightened being, 2500 years ago. She is the female counterpart of Heruka, the Lord of the Heroes, and she teaches us how to attain enlightenment through purifying our female essence, our dakini nature. It is an excellent antidote against limitless attachment and greed and the realisations brought about by it’s practice can lead to Enlightenment in a single lifetime.
The Dharma is precious and has no price. Therefore, in accordance with tradition, an offering can be made for this activity according to each person’s possibilities and choice.

The Eight Mahayana Precepts transmission

Event Details
I am Peter Webb, born in Australia where I came to realise that my blood is green and that plants and landscapes are my passion.
I studied horticulture and permaculture and have always worked with plants professionally in various different countries.
I came to accept my perception of Nature through my contact with the Findhorn community, the works of Rudolph Steiner, Johannes Goethe, Jochen Bochemuhl and through the inspired work of various phenomenologists .
During the last 20 years or so, my vision has embraced Tibetan Buddhism and the teachings of Lama Gangchen Rinpoche and Lama Michel Rinpoche. Together with Bel Cesar, my wife, we work with eco-psychology in a search for reuniting people and nature; the inner and outer world which are in fact one.
Fernanda Lenz grew up immersed in Buddhist practice alongside her brother, Lama Michel Rinpoche. With a background in Design for Sustainability, group facilitation and regenerative education, she found in Joanna Macy’s Deep Ecology the bridge between her spiritual roots and her ecological vocation. Her work creates spaces for collective healing, inviting people and organisations to move through apathy and rediscover a sense of belonging — with themselves, with others, and with the Earth.

Four mandala of Tara Chittamani puja
The practice of Tara Chittamani is a special method in Tibetan Buddhism which helps to dissipate interferences and liberate sentient beings from any form of fear and dangers. The practice permits one to identify with the pure crystal energy of the female divinity Tara which actually is an archetype of the pure female energy free from fear. Tara is also known as the Liberator and Swift Heroine for the speed which characterizes her intervention. The special energy of Tara who is the consort of Buddha Amoghasiddhi, the Supreme Healer of fear, is the key to overcoming all external, internal and secret fears.
