Registration for the online streamed retreats will open on May 1st at these links:
Intro Open Steamed Retreat 
Advanced Open Streamed Retreat

TEACHINGS:  Tsoknyi Rinpoche

TRANSLATOR: Adam Kane

This is an open, silent retreat with no prerequisites. Pointing out instructions are typically given at in-person open retreats.

REGISTRATION

A new registration process will be implemented for the Crestone in-person retreats. The process will consist of two steps: an online application followed by a review of applications and selection based on criteria we are currently developing. We are implementing this new system because of the increased interest in Rinpoche’s in-person Crestone retreats.

Acceptance will be based on a model of random selection, with preferential weighting (e.g. for members, and new students).  For more information and FAQs for members, monastics, scholarships, etc., please see the Crestone retreat application FAQs: https://tsoknyirinpoche.org/application-information.

APPLICATION

The application process is now closed.
