Kurukulla Practice Retreat

Kurukulla Practice Retreat
Gomde California | May 2027
Kurukulla is a magnetizing dakini—an expression of enlightened wisdom and the dynamic power of compassion. In this profound Vajrayana practice, the practitioner connects with Kurukulla’s enlightened qualities and mind to attract all that is beneficial for the Dharma path, including supportive circumstances, inner realization, and auspicious connections with others.
In the summer of 2023, Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche bestowed the Kurukulla empowerment at Gomde California, planting the seed of this sacred practice in our sangha. Now, under Lama Tsultrim Sangpo’s expert guidance, we will engage in a week long practice retreat to deepen our understanding and direct experience.
We warmly invite all practitioners who have received the Kurukulla empowerment to join us for this precious and transformative retreat.
