The Ninth Annual Shamatha Retreat, 2025

HELD AT KAMALASHILA TIBETAN BUDDHIST CENTRE
3-11 October 2025

Khenpo la taught for the nine days on The Nine Stages of Shamatha Meditation and The Parting from the Four Attachments. An incredible retreat of precious Dharma teachings. Thank you so much Khenpo la and all our wonderful participants and volunteers for making this such a special annual event for everyone to truly benefit from.

“I really enjoyed the 2025 Shamatha Retreat for so many reasons. Firstly, of course, was the quality of teachings and guided meditations from Khenpo as well as the harmony that pervaded the group. The peaceful surroundings and facilities helped immensely in quieting the mind and the restaurant quality food and service in the dining area topped off an awesome experience. Thanks so much to all involved, as I would highly recommend others wanting to deepen their practice to attend.”

“Thank you so much for organising these retreats. To learn the dharma from Khenpo la is a precious gift indeed. I am changed from the retreat for the better I believe. I have a greater understanding of bodhicitta and its importance for my meditation. Connecting my mind’s worries to realising that so many sentient beings suffering having those exact same worries. It helped me to understand the suffering and gain compassion for us all. Before, my mediation dedication was focused just on me!”
