The Union of Pristine Mind and Awakened Heart: A Two-Day Retreat with Anam Thubten and Orgyen Chowang Rinpoche

Saturday, February 7th & Sunday February 8th, 2026
From 10:00am – 5:00pm Pacific Time Each Day

In-person at Dhumatala Temple only

Advance registration is required for this in-person retreat. (Please note, there is no zoom option or recordings.)

Registration closes on Friday, Feb. 6, at 9:00 am Pacific time. 

A true spiritual path balances and encompasses both wisdom and a good heart. When we embody these qualities, we discover not only inner liberation but the profound meaning of our lives. This union sits at the heart of Tibetan Buddhist practice. Because the fundamental nature of the mind is already pristine, we are all capable of experiencing the richness of an awakened life—one no longer fueled by ingrained mental patterns but supported by awareness, insight, and an open heart.

Anam Thubten and Orgyen Chowang Rinpoche will offer dharma talks and meditation practices to evoke our own pristine mind and awakened heart.
